Hello,

We have Cloud Jira. I try to required Fix version field just for resolve issue screen. I did this field seen just in resolve issue screen. However, if I set the Fix version Field is required, creating issue screen is not work. Because it wants to enter Fix versiyon when I try to create an issue, but there is no Fix Version field in creating issue screen.

Could you please help me?

Thank you.

To require that a field is set before transitioning:

  1. Transition settings
  2. Validators
  3. Add validator
  4. Field required validator
  5. Choose the field(s) (e.g. "Fix Version")

If the user attempts to use this transition, the transition screen will give them an error saying that field must have a value. 

On a side note, make sure to include this field on your transition screen so they can add it immediately without having to leave the screen.

The "mandatory" flag in the field configuration makes a field mandatory throughout the lifecycle of the issue.

What you need to do is check it on resolving the issue.  This is not a function of screen or field configuration, it is done in the workflow.  Edit the workflow and look for the "resolve" transition.  If you click on it for details, you should get a box with "validators" as an option.  You need to add one that says "fix version is filled in".  You may need to add apps to your system to provide validators that can do that.

Thank you for your quick reply. What kind of app do you mentioned about? How can we add this app to our cloud jira?

A default Cloud Jira may already have the app you need.  Go have a look at the list of available validators in your workflows (when you edit a work flow, it goes into a "draft" mode which means you are not actually making any change that affects anything.  You can discard the draft later)
