Hello, can we set the priority by type of issue?

[Manuel Allamellou]

I have in my project different type of issue. On each type of issue I want different level of priority. How can I do?

Thx

Hello,

I believe you can not do it out of the box. But you can use add-ons such as Power Scripts, Script Runner, Automation for Jira and so on.

If you want to use the Power Scripts add-on, then you can create a post function for the create issue transition with a code like this:

if (issueType == "Task") {

 priority = "High";

}

if (issueType == "Story") {

 priority = "Medium";

}

Yes.  Without Apps, you can create a workflow for each issue type ((bound together by the workflow scheme for the project).  Each one can have a different post-function for "Set issue field (priority) to <your choice>" added to the create transition.

With Apps, you could write a script that looks at the issue type and chooses for you (so you could do it all in a single workflow)

Hi,

no out-of-box. You can set priority schemes per project only.

For your use case you should use scripting by Scriptrunner plugin. Some time ago I used it for custom filed values based on another field. But I don't have any example now.
