This is the documentation of JSU for Jira Cloud. If you are using JSU on Jira Server/Data Center, you can find the documentation here.
Description
The 'Fields Required' checks whether values for specified fields are set for a given transition.
Configuration
You must select mandatory fields, when configuring the transition. For example:
JSU default behaviour is to apply the context settings – whether the field is actually configured for the issue in transition. This means that if a field that is required by this check, but has no valid context for the current issue, it will not be checked. Thus you may select to ignore the context, in which case the field will be required by this check, even if it is not configured for the current issue.
Example
A workflow is configured so that the 'Ready for Review' transition has the 'Fields Required' check where the 'Reviewer' is mandatory. It will then copy the Reviewer to the Assignee, assigning the issue to the reviewer.
Supported Field Types
JSU supports many different field types; system fields, as well as custom fields.
You should be aware, however, that not all field types or all combinations are supported. We have tried to cover the most important field types but we are continuously adding more and improving how different field types are supported. We recommend you test JSU with fields to see if it is compatible with your system. Our evaluation license provides you with a 30-day free trial.
