Smartchecklist is hidden, how can I make is visible as default

Omer Yaylagul

After migrating from Data Center to Cloud, we noticed that Smart Checklist is hidden in our issues. We are seeing this problem across thousands of migrated issues.

Currently, for each issue, we have to open the Apps menu in the upper-left corner of the Jira Cloud issue view and manually click Smart Checklist to make it visible. We are experiencing the same issue with Xray Tests as well.

Is there a way to make Smart Checklist and Xray Test panels visible by default for all existing issues in bulk in all projects(globally), instead of enabling them manually one by one?

Hello @Omer Yaylagul 

Setting for Smart Checklist are described here Control Smart Checklist position on issue view - Smart Checklist Cloud - Confluence

Xray Unable to hide Test Coverage section in a Ticket - Jira Development / Jira Cloud - The Atlassian Developer Community

Both Smart Checklist and Xray are Marketplace apps, I would also recommend contacting the app vendors and asking whether they provide an admin/API/migration-side way to apply the display preference in bulk after a Data Center to Cloud migration.

From the Jira side, I would not expect the normal issue layout configuration to solve this globally, because these are app-provided panels, not standard Jira fields.

Best,

Arek🤠
