Inspired by

This plugin is heavily inspired by jdvp. the code is here. Although it's a complete rewrite and the original is couple of years, it's still Rockz!

General

This plugin, build for JIRA 8+ , defined a rest custom field which allows you to connect the field to a rest endpoint. After adding this custom field to an issue edit screen, you can select one of those values so it will be associated with the current issue.

Development

Please refer to atlassian and their atlassian-sdk on how to run/debug/develop it. It's been a journey learning it.

Installation

  1. Copy the thejaxx-rest-plugin-xxx.jar (or obr) to JIRA's plugin as explained in JIRA's docs
  2. Add a new custom field of type 'Rest Values Selection Field'

Configuration

The custom field can be configured with the Configure button in the add-ons section in jira
