The Read function in Jira Field Mapping allows you to pull Jira field values into your Excel-like table. This ensures that your table stays updated with the latest information from Jira, without needing to manually enter the data.
Use Cases
1. Displaying Jira Issue Details
-
Example: You map the Status field of a Jira issue to a table cell.
-
Outcome: If the status of the Jira issue changes (e.g., from "To Do" to "In Progress"), the table cell updates automatically when the table is loaded.
2. Tracking Priority Changes
-
Example: You map the Priority field to a cell in your table.
-
Outcome: Any updates made to the Priority field in Jira will be reflected in your table when it is reloaded.
When Does Data Update?
-
When the table loads: The mapped cells will automatically refresh with the latest Jira data.
-
When the mapped Jira field is changed: If someone updates the Jira field, the changes will reflect in the table upon reload.
