JIRA custom attributes [message #46160]

Forgive if this has been discussed before. I googled a bit but didn't
find a lot of details on the subject.

What is the status of support in the JIRA connector for custom
attributes? Our JIRA admin has defined custom attributes, some of which
are required in order to move an issue along in the (custom) workflow.
Specifically, I can't resolve an issue unless I can provide values for
these custom fields.

The only info I could find was a mention in the 3.0 plan in EclipseWiki:
"support for additional features such as custom attributes."
I've got version 2.3.1 of org.eclipse.mylyn.jira_feature. Is there
anything I can do right now to get this working?

TIA,
Eric

Generally custom fields are supported and should be included in the
attributes section. There are limits in regard to the supported types and
when creating new issues. This query lists some of the known bugs:

Please comment on one of the bug reports and include details about your
repository configuration (i.e. JIRA version, types of custom fields used).
Please file a new report if none of the existing bugs match the problem you
are seeing.
