Jira values placeholders

Jira values placeholders

This article describes how to use placeholders in combination with SQL to populate the grid with data.  Table Grid Next Generation supports placeholders to query Jira values.

Jira values can be used to initialize the grid with data, as dynamic options or as a default value in a grid column.

You can query the values from the following Jira-specific objects: issue, project, component, user and custom fields.

For example, you can populate the grid column with a default value retrieved from Jira object. 

You can use Jira values to populate the grid with data in different cases:

  • initialize grid with data 

  • set default values for grid columns

  • populate select lists with dynamic options retrieved from Jira

  • use custom field values in a grid: get data from a custom field which has a list of values and populate a grid with these values.

Supported values

Check the list of the supported values that you can get from Jira objects.
