Team-managed spaces

This chapter provides information on how to use templates in team-managed spaces.

Team-managed spaces differ from company-managed spaces. The main difference is that most entities, like work item types or fields, are local to a team-managed space.

Differences between company and team-managed spaces that affects ITC:

Company-managed spaces can share the same custom fields and work item types, team-managed entities are local and are not shared.
Subtasks can’t be created directly under an Epic in team-managed spaces. Other work items (like a story or task) can have subtasks.

Steps

Info

The method described in Create from template that enables UI modification and adds the template field to the create screen automatically doesn’t apply to team-managed spaces. For such spaces you need to add it manually.

Make sure the custom field Issue templates offered by Issue Template for Jira is available in your space. If not, add it to your space following Add fields to your space.

Navigate to Space settings of your team-managed space and go to work item types.
Type Issue templates to find the custom field offered by Issue Template for Jira.

Configuring team managed projects
Drag and drop the field to add it, preferably on top for easier template selection.
Click Save changes.
