How to display selected configuration values beside "Edit custom field config" in customfield page

sumit patil May 1, 2025

Hi community,

I'm building a custom field using Atlassian Forge (jira:customFieldType) and using contextConfig  to allow users to select a group from the list of Jira groups. The config UI works correctly and saves the selected value, but I want to display the selected group name beside the "Edit custom field config"  link on the Custom Field > Configure page in Jira (like how some Forge or built-in fields show the current configuration value next to the edit link).

So far, I’ve explored:

  • contextConfig.layout: native and render: native

  • Using a formatter expression (but that only affects issue view)

  • Tried looking for displayContextConfig or similar, but it doesn't seem to exist or be documented.

        here is manifest file :

Is there any supported way in Forge to show a summary of the selected configuration (e.g. the selected group name) directly on the custom field configuration page, next to the Edit Custom Field Config link?

If not, is there a recommended workaround or is this a feature planned for the Forge platform?

Thanks!
