Is there any way to limit the visibility of system fields?

In a Jira Cloud instance, we need to limit the visibility of some system fields, such as original estimate or remaining estimate, for example.
Do you know any solution for this?


I don't think there is a native solution, but we haven't seen any Marketplace applications that allow it either, as they only allow it with customised fields :S.

I hope you can help me 🙌🏻

Hi @María Ferreño Serra 

what do you mean by limit the visibility? Is it sufficient to hide them in the issue view?
Or do you need to make them visible to only specific roles?

Hi @Kai Becker For certain roles, I need these fields to be hidden 😇

Hi @María Ferreño Serra ! there was an old discussion around setting field level security, the only workaround is to configure the workflow scheme to achieve this:

You are correct in that you need an app for this, here is a quick search that return a couple of apps in the Marketplace that can do this. Not listed among them but I know from experience that you can do this using Scriptrunner and Power Scripts.

Thanks @Linh Pham  but I need to hide some default fields from de issue view. Do  you think is possible with Power Scripts?

Yes, you should be able to do this with Power Scripts.
