This pre-deploy error appears when trying to deploy a custom field context which isn't global, and there is no project which references it.

What triggers this error?

This error is triggered when trying to deploy a Jira Custom Field Context, which:

  • Is not global

  • Is not referenced by any project in the deployment plan

Jira can not deploy such field contexts.

Learn more about field contexts in Atlassian's documentation for Jira Cloud or Jira Data Center.

How can I solve this?

The detailed error message indicates whether the field has other, valid contexts (which are global, or attached to other projects). If it does, it is safe to continue without deploying the context.

In case this context is the only one, deploying the field without it will have no effect on the target destination; you should probably fix the problem with the context and try deploying again. There are 2 possible ways to do so:

  1. Go to Jira, and make this field context global. Note that this may affect performance; read more about it him Atlassian's documentation above

  2. Find the project elements which reference this field context, and include them in your deployment
