Teams in Jira projects
The Team custom field is now available on the Free, Standard, and Premium plans for Jira Software Cloud, Jira Work Management, and Jira Service Management. Join the conversation to share any questions or feedback.
You can add the Team custom field to your projects in Jira products. You must have Browse users and groups permission in order to use the field
The Team field allows people to:
associate issues with a specific team
Search or filter results to a specific team
Note for Advanced Roadmaps users: the Team field on sandbox sites may not work as intended and may exclude teams from search results. We are working on resolving this issue, and hope to have sandbox sites working properly.

Automation using the Team field
You can create new rules using the Team custom field to automate your work around Jira projects.
If you encounter an error with the Team field when using automation, check the Audit Log to see what went wrong.
In some cases, the error may be related to using an open site.
Use a post function to update the Team field
When using the Team field with advanced issue workflows, you must use the Team UUID value instead of the team name.
To add a post function which updates the Team field:
Select Update Issue Custom Field from the Add Post Function screen.
Select Add.
From the Issue Custom Field dropdown, select Team.
For Custom Field Value, you must enter the Team UUID.
To get the Team UUID:
Go to the team profile page.
Copy the value of the Team UUID from the URL. For example: https://yoursite.atlassian.net/people/team/[TeamUUID]
Paste the Team UUID to Custom Field Value.
