Table Configuration

1 Table context
2 Column configuration
3 Display configuration

Go to Jira Settings → Apps → STAGIL Tables for Jira → Tables Configuration.

This page lists all created tables and gives you a comprehensive overview of projects and issue types involved. When the Search Status column states Activated it means that data from your custom field is searchable. You can easily deactivate it by selecting Deactivate in the three-dot Actions menu.

To configure a table select Manage in the same three-dot Actions menu.

Table context

Here you can configure issue types and projects your table should be available for.

Please note that context updates after table has been used affect the accuracy of the JQL results.

For example, a table is set up to be displayed in both Story and Task issues, and it has values in issues of both types. If the Task issue type is then removed from the context, the JQL query will continue to list Task issues in the results. This occurs because the app stores table values in issue properties and they are not cleared after the context is updated.

Column configuration

Click Add new column and fill in the following fields

Column Name: it will be displayed as the title of your table in the issue view.
Column Type: choose field type from those available in the drop-down menu (Simple Text, Number, Decimal Number, Date, Select List, User Picker, Formula)
Mandatory: make the column mandatory and with “default value” you can define default values.
Service Portal: decide whether to show the column on the portal or not.

Define whether your rows should be numbered.
Select the Drag and Drop option in Order by fields to keep manual control over rows disposition.

Display configuration

The Display tab contains settings for the whole table in the issue view.

Display tab in table configuration

Show rows count: adds an additional read-only column that will automatically display a row number in the table.

Default sorting: automatically sort rows in ascending order based on the values of a specific column.

Row height (lines): allows to define the height of a row to a maximum of 3 lines.

Table row with row height set to 3 lines: text is truncated after the 3rd row; the full text can be visible in a tooltip on hover.

Table row with row height set to 1 line: text is truncated after the 1st row; the full text can be visible in a tooltip on hover.

Maximum table height (lines): allows to define the height of a table. The maximum number of lines depends on the row height.

Row height: 1 line = Table height: 30 rows

Row height: 2 lines = Table height:20 rows

Row height: 3 lines = Table height: 15 rows
