Fields Visibility - Visualization

Preview the relations between your dynamic fields on a graph

After configuring fields visibility, you can check the relations between your Dynamic Forms custom fields on the dependency graph.

To view the graph, navigate to Manage apps > Dynamic Forms > Fields Visibility - Visualization.

Info
Red arrows stand for required fields.
Tip

The graph is customizable - here’s what you can do:

  • drag and drop the nodes to relocate them
  • zoom in and out as in a map
  • click and hold the cursor on the graph to move it around

Preview configuration

Besides showing the visual dependencies between fields and custom fields, the graph presents the current Fields Visibility configuration of each field.

Double-click on a node to check detailed relations of the field (for example, parents and children of the target custom field).

Tip

This view will show you custom fields’ options that are not visible on the graph. In our example two of the fields are related to the Laptop option, and two others to Monitor.

Show deleted fields

Enable this option to show fields and custom fields of the following properties:

  • related fields that got deleted from Jira
  • related fields that were provided by another app and the app got disabled

Note
  • Removing the parent field (dynamic/master field) will remove such fields from the configuration and they won’t be visible even after enabling this option.
  • Dynamic custom fields that aren’t set as related in the Dynamic Forms configuration will remain visible as separate nodes:

Show partial relations

If you have a complex configuration, you might want to view only a part of it. Here’s how to generate a visualization of only one relation tree:

Steps

  1. Open the Fields Visibility Configuration page.
  2. Select the custom field you’d like to view.
  3. Click the three dots menu.
  4. Select Show relations.
