As a Project administrator, you can define which Parameter value lists are available to your project. These lists can be used to define the available values for list parameters and also to define datasets columns.

Project parameter value lists can be either imported to a project from the globally available Parameter value lists (defined in Xray section of Jira settings detailed in Global Settings: Parameter value lists) or created directly in the project.

However, Parameter value lists are managed within the scope of a project. Those are the ones that will be seen by your project.

By default, no Parameter value list will be automatically added to your project, they always have to be added explicitly.

If the same list is shared by multiple projects, you can create a global list instead and enable it for the projects where you want to use the list.


Add/Import a global Parameter value list

  1. Click Add Global List.


     
  2. Search the globally available Parameter value lists, either by using the dropdown picker or by using autocomplete.



  3. Select the list you want and click Add.

Create a project Parameter value list

To create a new project Parameter value list, click Create List, fill out the following fields, and press Create:

  • Name: the name for the list (a string of maximum length of 64 characters);
  • Values: to enter and add each of the values for the list (a string of maximum length of 64 characters).

Modify a project Parameter value list

Existing Global Parameter value lists can be modified. You just to need to:

  1. Click "..." button and then Edit button on the table entry corresponding to the list.


     
  2. You can change the values, reorder them or change the list name and once you're done, click on Save.



Please note

In Xray project settings you can only edit a project scoped parameter value list, to learn how to edit a global scoped parameter value list go to: Global Settings: Parameter value lists.

Delete a project Parameter value list

Project Parameter value lists can be deleted from Xray. 

  1. Click "..." button and then Delete button on the table entry corresponding to the list.



  2. Confirm by clicking Delete (if there are any issues using the parameter value list to be deleted, then it will show you a warning).



Please note

In Xray project settings when you delete a Global list, it will only be deleted from that project, it will not affect the global list itself or other projects. To learn how to delete a global scoped parameter value list, go to: Global Settings: Parameter value lists.
