How to hide Filed or field values in JIRA cloud

[Sreenatha Reddy J]

I have Field called Priority_Number and under that we have priority values up to 100, but I wanted only 1 and 2 so rest all the things I need to hide.

So please suggest me any option to achieve my requirement?

Hi @Sreenatha Reddy J 

Hiding values on a single select field (assuming your field is a single select) can be done from the configuration (context and default values) of the field itself, by disabling (not deleting) its values.

However I'm curious of why you have built a field with a 100 values, and then you want to have just 2 values. What is it that you are trying to achieve? If we know this, we might be able to provide of a better solution.

Hi @Alex Koxaras _Relational_ That was done by previous Jira admin, and now the Team don't want more than 2 priority numbers. We can remove that priority numbers directly but there are 200+ issues are open status with multiple priority numbers. So if we try to delete those priority numbers then open issues data will lost know. so I wanted to hide the field values.

Got it! So most likely you will go ahead and disable 98 values from your single select list as per my instruction on the first comment. It will take a few minutes, but it's doable.
