Allow Project Admins to Configure Fields

 

Enabling this feature will allow project administrators to configure checklist fields through REST APIs.

Project administrators can edit all contexts in which they are the administrator of at least one related project. This includes global contexts.

Global Item Validation

When a user attempts to delete a global item, a window appears that displays the number of issues containing that global item and prompts the user to either continue or cancel.

No window is displayed when a user deletes a global item. Turning this feature off can speed up deletion because querying your database using Jira’s process can take some time.

Clever Changelog

In the issue history, the before and after sections will only show items that were added, modified or removed when the custom field was modified.

The issue history will list all items before and after the custom field was modified, letting you compare the changes manually.

Contact Support

A Contact Support link leading to the Checklist Support portal is available in the checklist header’s menu.

No Contact Support link is shown in the checklist header’s menu.

Convert to Issue

Item to issue conversion is controlled by the feature flag in the checklist field configuration. If the feature flag is enabled, item to issue conversion is available. If the feature flag is disabled, item to issue conversion is unavailable.

Item to issue conversion in checklists is globally unavailable, even if the feature flag is enabled in the checklist field configuration.
