Dynamically creating entity properties in Forge

Hi,
Is there a way to dynamically create entity properties in a forge app? I would like to create JQL searchable properties but with Entity Properties module, I could only have a predefined set of properties.
Thanks for the help in advance,
Necla

Hi @NeclaMutlu2, thank you for reaching out!

You can use Jira REST API to manage entity properties within your Forge app, e.g. https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-properties/#api-group-issue-properties

Unfortunately, it isn’t possible to create new properties using Forge jira:entityProperty module.

Best regards,
Łukasz

Hi,
Those properties created by the rest api is not jql searchable, right? Or am I missing something?
Best Regards,
Necla

Yes, correct. These properties should be later indexed, e.g. with Forge module.
I’m afraid, currently we don’t offer the option, to dynamically create searchable properties.

Best regards,
Łukasz
