Destination issue field

Destination issue field is a kind of feature that helps to change your issue field values to the value of form elements. You have an issue with the form (Step) and as soon as the Assignee submits the form, the issue will change by the Assignee’s response (earlier you must set up the Destination issue field in the elements settings).

So, if you want to add data to a specific field in Jira, the Destination issue field is exactly what you need.

By default, submitted form data saves inside the issue to it has been added.

The Destination issue field allows only a single form element value to be map for each field, even if the field can accept multiple values. However, you can map multiple values from form elements to Jira Field Labels.

  • Text field

  • Dropdown

  • Number
