Advanced Link field in 'Create issue' screen
- Santa Rudzite
- Vasyl Bryndas
The Advanced Link field, although not a custom field, can be accessed in the Create issue dialogue. Through this field, users can browse, select, and link issues during issue creation. However, this feature is not readily accessible and requires additional configuration. Both the outward and inward fields need to be enabled separately.
To include a particular Advanced Link field in the create issue dialogue, go to the Display Style configuration tab and check out the option to Enable field on create screen → Save.
After selecting the checkbox and saving the configuration, a Forge custom field (type = Advanced link direction) will be generated with the same name as the advanced link field. Configuration of this newly created custom field will be locked to mirror advanced link field configuration, and it can be made mandatory.
When the ‘Create issue’ dialogue is launched from an asset view, then the link field in the dialogue will be pre-populated with the current asset’s key.
Please note that enabling Advanced Links for several contexts at once or global context requires a few minutes for the field to appear in the Create issue screen.
