Using custom fields (NString) in "Jira Comment Hint" plugin in GitExtensions

[zroytman]

Hi, i'm using GitExtensions 3.1.1 and have a placeholder {CustomFields} in the Jira Hint Comment plugin definition. Using this placeholder as is returns me the message that this is a collection. How can i specify the custom field from this collection? The required custom field is "Application". Tried several ways like {CustomFields["Application"]}, {CustomFields("Application")}. {CustomFields.Application}, etc... getting error messages.
According to the following link the CustomFIelds is the NString which can only get fields and properties from top level object.

Please help to solve the issue.
Thanks.

Hi @zroytman,
This isn't supported right now. It could probably be done, but it's a significant amount of work. I'll create a backlog issue for this, but I can't commit to a release date... I'll gladly accept contributions, though.
