We have upgrades the REST API specification (aka swagger JSON) to OpenAPI 3.0 JSON format.

Jira 11 major upgrade app instructions

When upgrading from an earlier Jira version e.g. 9.x or 10.x you will need to perform the following actions, since the latest app version 4.0.0 is only compatible to Jira 11 and higher versions.

Upgrade example from Jira 10 to Jira 11

prerequisites:

• Make sure Customfield Editor for Jira 3.2.1 is installed (latest version for Jira 10)
• Make sure your Jira runs with Java JDK 21 or higher

upgrade Jira 10 to 11 (simplified | please check official documentation)

• Download Jira 11 tar.gz and extract
• Change JIRA_HOME in bin/setenv.sh to your Jira Home directory
• Change JAVA_HOME in bin/setenv.sh to your JDK 21 directory
• Shutdown Jira 10
• Startup Jira 11

The app is shown as incompatible since it still is the Jira 10 compatible app version 3.2.1. We need to uninstall this version now.

Now install the latest Jira 11 compatible app version 4.0.0 under Find new apps by searching for Customfield and clicking install.

All done. The app is working again. No backups needed. All app data is still here.
