 Description  « Hide
Our project is in the process of evaluating JIRA (BTW: Great product) and have a question about if the following is possible.

Is it possible to create a group of fields on an issue that are repeatable? I'm looking at a screen with 5 or 6 different fields on it and a user can fill in the fields, click add and add more if needed. Probably the best example within Jira I see of this is the View Screen Schemes page where you can add as many schemes as you want. Is it possible to add such functionality for an issue?

I don't think this is possible OOB and will require custom code, but wanted to ask the JIRA community about it.

Thanks
-Jeff

Hi Jeff,

This feature is not available out of the box, but, as you said, it is possible to implement it using the custom field plugin module. The custom field would most likely be similar to the 'WEB-INF\classes\templates\jira\issue\field\attachment-edit' template that is used to same effect for attachments.

Also if you would like to contact the jira user community for feedback or general questions you can do so by subscribing to the jira user list.

Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions.

Thanks,
Brian
