See different fields in an issue according to selection in a dropdown field

[Vasilis Gen]

I am trying to figure out how can I have different fields in a Jira issue according to the  selection within a dropdown field. 

Ex. I am trying to create an issue that has certain fields, including a dropdown field that has a binary selection available, "Yes" & "No", when I select the Yes option I need to have one more textarea field that will contain more information for my issue. Is that possible somehow?

Out of box, no, there isn't a way to do it without splitting it across different issue types. However there are several plugins which allow doing this, such as:

Hi @Vasilis Gen 

It is possible but you will have to use a paid like ScriptRunner for Jira. It has a feature called Behaviours where you can write a simple script to display dynamic fields.
