# Initial Release - Live Fields for Jira Cloud

**Release date**: October 15, 2024 

## Scriptable field values, field updates, and formatting! 

Live Fields is a new Appfire app that works in conjunction with JMWE or Power Scripts and enables you to control field values, behaviors, and access to improve your workflows and data integrity. Using JavaScript within a Live fields configuration lets you build numerous behaviors into the Jira screens for creating and viewing issues, including (but not limited to): 

- Showing or hiding fields based on the issue type, the user, or the value of nearly any other field!
- Make fields mandatory based on custom criteria
- Automatically calculate field values based on your business process
- Make fields read-only for some users, but editable for others

See the [Feature tour](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/LF/pages/1497892138) for more details on what Live Fields can do!
