Making main database custom fields searchable

...

If the custom field already exists, go to Administration > Issues > Custom fields, click Edit for the desired custom field, and choose one of the available values for Search Template.


Warning

Custom fields that use Free Text Searcher (such as Text Field or Text Area) are not supported in Two Dimensional Filter Statistics gadget.
This is also the case for Database Free Text Searcher and Database Child Text Searcher, which are based on the standard Free Text Searcher in Jira.
For your field value to be displayed correctly in this gadget, use the Database Exact Text Searcher/Database Child Exact Text Searcher.

Performing a re-index

After you change the search templates for all custom fields that you want, perform a re-index in Jira for the search to work fine.

Note
titleIndexing

From time to time, the re-index has errors if you installed the app via UPM. Please edit and save a custom field on the Administration page and then try again. This problem is described also in Installation via Atlassian Universal Plugin Manager.
