Limitations

Multiple UIM apps

If you install and configure multiple UIM apps to run for a given combination of project, issue type, and view type, up to 5 apps can apply changes simultaneously. If more than 5 apps are configured, changes from the remaining apps will be disregarded. Apps apply changes asynchronously, so the order of application is random.

There may be conflicts when multiple apps attempt to modify the same field using the same FieldAPI method. In such cases, users will see corresponding notifications:

Multiple UI modification apps are trying to change the same field property. If you see unexpected changes to a field, report them to your Jira admin

If the conflict happens, the changes applied by the app which finished running last will override changes from other apps.
