How to create a Cascading Field using Nfeed

[Rafael Duarte]

I need to create a Cascading Select List using 3+ levels or columns.

Example:

Country / State / City

• Brazil / São Paulo / Santo André
• Brazil / São Paulo / Garulhos
• Brazil / Rio de Janeiro / Angra

Nfeed Version: 5.13.20

P.S.: If anyone know a better plugin to do that, i`m really grateful

Hello Rafael,

Hello Nicolas, i saw this wiki but i'm still having trouble to configure.

I'm trying to use JQL but i have no idea if it's right to use JQL.

I'm really new on Nfeed. So i'm a little lost.

Need i create 3 nfeed custom fields to do like that example or need i create a single Nfeed custom field and to configure to  columns?

Hello Rafael,

It all depends on your need. Querying with JQL means that the result will be a list of issues, is this what you want? If your countries/states/cities are stored under Jira custom fields, then that is a possibility. If not, JQL is not an option. Where are your data stored?

Having 3 nFeed fields or only one select list is your choice, both are configurable. It depends on what you want to achieve.

The idea is myself populate the field with the options.

So the user select in the first column Country a "Option A" and after in the column City "List of Cities" for "Country Option A"

Hello Rafael,

I think you should try to follow the tutorial I mentioned above step by step so you have a first working setup. Then you can think of adapting it to your own need. The tutorial is very simple, just follow all steps and you go!
