Set up Jira Cloud
Learn how to set up Jira Cloud and integrate it with other products and applications.
You can customize the issue view to show more fields, hide fields, and rearrange the field layout.
To configure the layout of the issue view—which fields appear and the order they appear in—open an issue and choose Configure at the bottom-right. To find out more about configuring the issue layout, check out Configure field layout in the issue view.
To configure the board and any of its settings, you must be either:
a project administrator for the location of the board
a board administrator for the board itself
See Permissions overview for more information.
You can configure the fields to be displayed in the issue detail view on the board configuration screen. The values of some fields are also editable in the issue detail view.
