The formatter property of the Jira custom field and Jira custom field type modules is now used on an issue view when a rendering function is not defined for a field. This formatter property renders the value as a string.
Custom field values are no longer stored in issue properties since there is now a dedicated REST API for updating values directly. This means it's no longer necessary to define an issue property key for them.
By 1 June 2021, the previous method of defining custom field values will no longer be supported.
See Jira custom field module for more details.
