Hello Admin,

 

Currently using Jira Cloud Product, I want to extract all custom fields with associated screen issue so I can evaluate all customs fields that are frequently use in our project.

Seems like Jira Cloud has no settings for this, could help me if there is any other way how to extract those custom fields.

@joanna_natial   Good evening.  I have a utility that helps.   This Excel Spreadsheet pulls back all your custom fields. 

  1. It is Free
  2. There is no VBA code; Just Power Query
  3. There is nothing to "Plugin".   Simply replace my Email, URL, and API Token with your own.
  • Follow this link to my Extract Page in my website:  SplitDimeData Excel Extracts 
  • The first version returns the list of fields.  It can be executed by any user
  • The second version with Screens requires Admin Permissions to run

Anyone interested may download and use either extract.

FYI:  many parts of the Altassian configuration (like screens) are tied to Projects using SCHEMES.   So its not quite as simple sometimes as saying "this screen has this field".  I will explain more later.  In the diagram below you can see that projects have Issue Type Screen Schemes.  (the square box - IT represents an Issue Type key)

Note -- anyone who reads my response is welcome to go to my website and download the Utilities.  They are free this week;   Next week I'll have multiple utilities zipped and sold as an "Admin utilities" Bundle.  Pricing to be determined.  But since it is NOT a plugin, there will be no "Per User" license costs.

Are you open to considering a third party app? If so you might find this one helpful.

@Trudy Claspill  good evening ... I glanced at your plugin (the marketplace detail) and I like the range of features.  Pricing also seems very reasonable.  

If I get a chance I will try to get a copy to do some testing later today.
