Using Key Value Pairs of User Properties

[Jens Wolfert]

Hello,

Is there a possibility to edit the Key Value Pairs in the properties of a user?

The scenario is as follows:
We want to enable a user to add KVP via a simple workflow in Jira. A logged on user would start the Workflow via a new issue, providing KVP which would be added to his profile as part of the workflow.

Is this possible?

Thanks in Advance!

Is it possible to use this key/value pair to be displayed on a Jira Issue?

it actually is, yes. it becomes even easier if you have ScriptRunner. Even if you don't have SR, it is possible to pull the key/value properties from a user profile using a post-function in the workflow (though i'm not positive if you can do it without a jira plug-in like JMWE or something similar).

I remember stumbling upon this while automating a workflow for one of my teams.
