How to rename Summary field title to a custom title

[Sudip Roy]

Is there a way the Summary field text can be changed a custom title of my own choice

Hi @Sudip Roy 

Sadly you can't. Standard(system) fields like Summary, Description, Labels, and Versions can't be renamed.

You can create a new custom field with another name though.

It isn't possible to rename default fields like Summary.

Thank you for reaching out.

Unfortunately, the Summary field in Jira is a system field, and its title cannot be directly renamed or customized. The Summary field is essential for issue identification and is used across various Jira features, so its title is fixed for consistency.

However, if you need to add a custom field with a different title that serves a similar purpose, you can create a new custom field and use it as required.
Let me know if you need any help with this or if you have any other questions!

Thanks,
