Field mapping

Configuring the field mapping ensures that the data from Jira fields inside your Jira issues correspond to the fields in BigPicture.

For example, the End date field stores planned completion data. When you expand or shorten a taskbar on the Gantt timeline, the app can automatically update the End date field of the task. But at the same time, you want that new date to be also reflected in the same project in Jira.

Proper field mapping enables this synchronization. So whenever you make changes to a task date in Jira, you’ll see those changes in your project in the app—and vice versa.
