Issue Summary

Mandatory fields are not identified as there is no visual cue provided for the mandatory field.

Note: A similar issue has been observed on the "Header" region of mandatory fields not identified for the "Summary" field in the "Help us improve Jira" modal dialog. Please refer screenshot 2

Steps to Reproduce

1. Navigate to "Boards" dropdown present in the header section.
2. Navigate to the "KAN board" option and activate it.
3. Observe that "Kanban board" page has been appeared on the page
4. Navigate to the "Release" button and activate it.
5. Observe that there is no cue to identify the mandatory fields.

Actual Results

There is no indication that the form field "Version name" in "Release" modal dialog is mandatory. Users are informed of the form fields being mandatory after the form is submitted with errors.
As a result, cognitive and screen reader users might not be able to identify the mandatory fields.

Expected Results

Provide the asterisk within the label mark-up of the mandatory form fields.
Additionally, provide an instruction "* denotes mandatory fields" at the beginning of the form to ensure all users can access the instruction.

Code Snippet

<span>* denotes mandatory fields</span>
<label for="ghx-release-name">Version name*</label> 

Workaround

Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
