Auto update summary field

[kottamusha17]

Hi Team,

I am looking to do below tings in JIRA

1. I need to hide summary field in create screen

2. once ticket has been created the summary should be project name + Fix version

ex: project name +Fixversion = summary.

@kottamusha17 

just one more option - you can use Jira automation to override summary field.

And yes, you still have to fill in a summary field on ticket creation.

Thanks for you respond team,

Can you help me how to update summary field with scrinp runner?

Please don't.  Your humans will be annoyed by you destroying their perfectly valid inputs.

Technical answer: in a post-function script, use issue.setSummary and see library.adaptavist.com for lots of examples of similar updates

Hi @kottamusha17 

You can't hide summary for sure. But yea, once the issue is created the summary can be overridden with project name+ version with the help of a workflow Post function.

So, in conclusion: You HAVE to fill a summary even just a dot. But we can override it to only show your requested fields.

Thanks,

Simar

No, you don't.  You should let the humans enter the summary, it's for a human summary of the issue.

You can't hide it from the create screen, as it is required.
