Create a Traffic Light Custom Field

STAGIL Traffic Lights app offers allows creating two types of fields that can ensure each team’s needs are met.

In its essence, STAGIL Traffic Lights is a custom field. Upon the app instalment, this will have to be done manually through Settings → Issues → Custom Fields → Create Custom Field. A dialogue will pop up
in which you can find a Traffic Lights macro under Advanced.

Define the name for your field and description if needed.

Then, associate the field to the appropriate screens. You must associate a field with a screen before it will be displayed. New fields will be added to the end of a tab. Click the “Update” button at the bottom of the page.

Next, set up the right permissions for the field to be displayed correctly: see Permissions custom fields:

  • Traffic Light (select) - a select list field with selectable options associated with a particular colour.

  • Traffic Light (calculated) - a read-only dynamic field with colours set based on the result of a JQL query.
