      Summary

      Currently URL custom field type in JIRA only supports 255 characters. In many cases, URLs can easily exceed 255 characters. This makes it impossible to save the URLs in the field.

      Suggestion

      Since it's very common for URLs to exceed 255 characters, this field type should support a bigger set of characters.

      Other Workarounds

      Instead of URL field, considering using the followings:

      1. A multi-line Text field, which supports ~32000 characters, link rendering (via Wiki Style Render) and can be set as Required in Field Configurations
