Actions

Actions are part of the rule configuration process and are applied to fields and their behavior. You can apply the following rules:

Dynamic Forms for Jira - extended Jira custom field management for Jira Cloud
Dynamic Forms for Jira - extended Jira custom field management for Jira Cloud
Tip

You can use some actions with fields that are set as required or hidden in native Jira. See Can I combine native Jira required and hidden fields with Dynamic Forms actions? for details.

Conditions

For each action, you can add conditions that define when the rule applies. The rule is only applied when these conditions are met. They involve both fields and user permissions. Operators are adjusted to each condition type.

Cascading Select conditions

When you use a Cascading Select field as a condition, you can match on the parent option alone or on both the parent and its suboption.

For example, if your Cascading Select field has Region as the parent and Country as the suboption:

  • Set the condition to Europe (no country selected) → the rule triggers for any issue where Region is set to Europe, no matter which country is chosen.
  • Set the condition to Europe → Poland → the rule only triggers when both Europe and Poland are selected.

The condition only applies when the field has a value - if the field is empty, the rule will not trigger.

Tip

Setting conditions based on user permissions works on:

  • Create work item screen
  • Work item view screen
  • Transition screen
  • Company-managed spaces
  • Team-managed spaces

It doesn’t work for presets (global configuration).
