Pre-Populate "Summary" field

Felix Starzer February 21, 2018

Heya there,

 

I'm currently looking for some ways to pre-populate our mandatory Summary field. We will need a specific structure for the headline (summary), that's the reason I want to have it pre filled with: %customField1% : %customField2:

1 would be for example the issue type and 2 would be the name of the company. 

How can this be achieved with Jira Cloud? I have found some articles but found nowhere a way how to do it exactly. :/

 

Thanks

Felix,

 I would use scriptrunner to make this change on post create function.  I would also ensure that the two custom fields are required.  I think it would be something like this issue.setSummary(field1Value + " " + field2Value)  

You can learn more here about the product. https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.onresolve.jira.groovy.groovyrunner/cloud/overview

Thanks! Is there no way how it could work without addons?

I don't know of any way to do it dynamically without using a third party plugin.
