Tabs Visibility
This page provides information on how to configure Tabs Visibility.
Tabs Visibility Control custom field allows to hide or display screen tabs based on the selected value in a related field. Tabs Visibility connects the related field with visibility settings.
To set a configuration, log in as a user with Jira Administrators global permission.
This functionality doesn’t clear data but hides instead. If some values are filled in a tab that is hidden, they can still be found (for example with JQL). When there are two fields associated with one tab, the configuration won’t work properly on the Issue View screen. Only the rule for the field that is lower in order will be applied.
Adding custom fields
Before you start using tabs visibility you need to add Tabs Visibility Control custom field provided by Dynamic Forms.
- Navigate to Manage Apps > Dynamic Forms > Tabs Visibility
- Click Add field or Add new field
- You will be transferred to Jira Custom Fields tab, click Add custom field.
- Select Tabs Visibility Control (in the advanced section) and click Next.
- Configure the custom field according to your needs.
Example
- Specify issue types and projects (recommended) or apply to all issues in all projects and click Create.
- Associate the custom field to screens and click Update.
Result
When you go back to the Tabs Visibility tab in Dynamic Forms your custom field is present and you can configure it.
