Map a screen to a workflow transition

In Jira, a screen is a layout of fields that are displayed to your users when they perform actions on work items.

Screens can be mapped to specific transitions in your teams' workflows, ensuring that the right information is captured at key stages. For example, you could create a screen called Bug is resolved that pops up when a bug moves from In progress to Done, displaying fields like Fix version and Resolution.

This page describes how to map a screen to a transition in a workflow.

Map a screen to a workflow transition

1. Go to Jira settings, then select Issues and then Workflows.

2. Select … > Edit for the workflow that you’d like to map a screen to.

3. Select the transition (i.e. the arrow between two statuses) where you want the screen to display. For example, if you select an In progress → Done transition, then the screen will display when a user moves work from In progress to Done.

4. Select Edit under the chosen transition.

5. Under Screen, select the screen you want to display when work items use this transition and then select Save.

6. Select Publish draft.
