      Atlassian Update – 18 February 2022

      Hi everyone,

      Thank you for your interest in this issue.

      We have shipped support for auto-populated request fields in Jira Service Management Data Center 4.22.

      You can generate URLs that will automatically populate selected request fields with contextual data. This way you can direct your customers to the customer portal from an external website and transfer certain details into the request fields.

      Learn how to set up URLS with auto-populated request fields.

      Kind regards,

      Charlie

      I would like to integrate further into our JIRA Service desk and the idea of a pre-populated link to a specific request type would be ideal.

      For example:

      • User clicks on public link
      • User redirected to request
      • User notices that the summary and the description are already pre-popuated with contextual information

      Implementation:

      I suspect the most simple implementation would be URL parameters that pre-populate the summary/description.
      Such as: https://<jira-base-url>/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/create/92?summary=Test&description=More%20Text%20for%20the%20description

      The (better) alternative would be the ability to use headers but would be more complicated.

      Use Case:

      • Dynamically generated support links throughout applications (such as "Report a problem with this document" or "Request access to this page")

      Thanks!
