You can also add custom ticket fields that are optional.

To automatically fill custom ticket fields:

   • Click Add more fields.
   • Enter values for your Jira field and Jira value.
   • To add an additional custom field, click the Configure optional fields button.

Raising tickets for previously found issues

When you create an automatic rule, it will raise Jira tickets when you run your next scan.

You can also raise tickets for issues that were found by your most recent successful scan, that meet your new rule. Select the tick box for Raise tickets for all issues from the most recent successful scan.

The process of raising tickets for these issues begins when you click Save.

2. Find the ticket rules you want to duplicate, and click the options menu . Select Create a duplicate.
