A JIRA schema is a group of data used to keep track of resources, configuration items, and assets. Object types, objects, attributes, icons, references, and statuses are just a few examples of the distinctive information that each schema contains.
A schema consists of the following elements:
Object types: The various types of entities that can be tracked in a schema are known as object types. A schema might have object types for servers, users, and apps, for instance.
Objects: Individual entities that are tracked in a schema are referred to as objects. As an illustration, objects for Server1, User1, and Application1 might be present in a schema.
Attributes: The properties of an object are its attributes. An object might include characteristics for its name, description, and status, for instance.
Icons: In JIRA, objects are represented by pictures called icons. The connections between items are known as references. An object can, for instance, refer to another object that serves as its parent.
References: The connections between items are known as references. An object can, for instance, refer to another object that serves as its parent.
Statuses: Statuses refer to the various states in which an object may be. An object might have the statuses Active’,‘Inactive, and Deprecated,, for instance.
