About PortalView Dynamic Fields for JSM

Overview, key features, use cases, and benefits of PortalView for Jira Service Management Cloud.

PortalView enhances the Jira Service Management experience by showing selected issue fields and SLA status directly in the customer portal, so customers always see the most relevant information without needing agents to open the issue view.

Overview

PortalView is a Forge app for Jira Service Management Cloud that empowers administrators to:

  • Select specific fields to display in the customer portal, including Priority, Assignee, and custom fields
  • Optionally show SLA remaining time and status
  • Configure settings per Project + Request Type
  • Automatically hide the app UI when no configuration exists for a project

This improves transparency for customers, reduces confusion, and cuts support follow-up interactions.

Key Features

Customizable Field Display

Choose up to 4 fields from each request type that will appear on the customer portal. Fields are rendered with clean formatting, including text, arrays, and custom objects (Fields Assets).

SLA Insight Included

Optionally display the SLA remaining time, status, and progress bar for the selected SLA of each request. Portal visitors get real-time SLA information without switching views.

Project & Request Type Granularity

Administrators can define different field and SLA displays for each JSM project and each request type, making configurations flexible.

Automatic Hiding When Not Configured

If a project or request type is not configured, the app hides itself and does not render unnecessary UI in the portal.

Respectful of Permissions

Built with Forge and Atlassian security best practices, PortalView is visible only to portal users with the proper permissions.

How It Works

  • Install PortalView from the Atlassian Marketplace
  • Go to App Configuration in Jira (Apps β†’ PortalView)
  • Select the Project and Request Type you want to configure
  • Pick up to 4 fields from your catalog to display
  • Optionally enable SLA visibility and provide the SLA identifier or name
  • Save and customers immediately see the selected fields and SLA information in the portal

Use Cases
