Copying and exporting Jira custom fields requires the Jira Administrator permissions and the Tempo Administrator permission.
You can select any of your defined Jira custom fields and copy them to your Tempo database. Once copied, the custom field values are included when you export a Logged Time report as Raw Data for additional processing. The custom fields are also available when using the Jira REST API.
The Jira custom fields are not displayed directly in the Logged Time reports - they are included only when you select the Download Raw Data option from the Export menu in Tempo reports. With the Raw Data option, you choose either the CSV or Excel (XLS, XLSX) formats for export. The Jira custom fields are not available with the XLS or CSV Report data Export options from Tempo reports.
