Issue Summary
Please find the Summary below:
- Create a custom field coming from a third-party plugin "Issue Matrix for Jira".
- This custom field can be configured to create linked issues. The problem seen is that:
- When the "Linked Issue" is created from the "Matrix" custom field, incorrect "issuetype" is selected for the first time.
- When the "Linked Issue" is created again, then the correct "issuetype" gets selected.
- When the "Linked Issue" is created from the "Matrix" custom field, incorrect "issuetype" is selected for the first time.
- In order to Link issue, the plugin makes "QuickCreateIssue" call of Jira where issuetype and project are sent as the Request Header.
Steps to Reproduce

- Create a "Matrix" custom fields and associate it to the required screen of the Project.
- Configure the "Matrix" custom field as below to create a new linked issue in another project. Here we are also specifying the default issue type as "Improvement"

- Configure the "Matrix" custom field as below to create a new linked issue in another project. Here we are also specifying the default issue type as "Improvement"
- When we create "Linked issue" from the Matrix Custom field, for the first attempt, the Issue Type gets selected as "Bug".

- Now if we create "Linked issue" from the Matrix Custom field again, in the second attempt, the expected "Issue Type" "Improvement" is selected
