Verify attribute values to be unique
Assets in Jira Service Management is a Premium and Enterprise only feature. Learn more about Assets.
The Unique values setting allows you to configure certain attributes to be ‘unique’, so they do not have any duplicate values wherever that attribute appears.
This also means that unique attributes will not have duplicate values in that object type, or in any child object types that inherit attributes from a parent object type.
Unique values can be enabled for the following attribute types:
Text
Integer
Float
Date
DateTime
URL
Reference (Object)
To verify attribute values to be unique within the object type, you must be logged in as a Jira admin or have Object Schema Manager permissions.
Enabling Unique values
You can have a maximum of two attributes set as Unique for each object type.
Objects that can contain multiple values (Cardinality greater than one) cannot be Unique too.
From Assets:
Select Object schemas.
Select the relevant object schema, then the object type.
Select the Attributes tab.
Next to the attribute, select the gear icon , then Attribute settings in the dropdown.
Under the General tab, select Unique, then Update.
We'll run a duplicate check in the background once you select Update.
Unique values can only be enabled after all duplicates are removed.
