How do you change you profile name? The last latter in my last name is incorrect.

Hi,

In Jira Cloud, your profile name comes from your Atlassian account, so you don’t change it inside Jira itself—you update it at the account level.

 

 

If you can’t edit your name your profile may be controlled by your organization (via Atlassian Access / identity provider)

  • In that case, you’ll need to:

    • Change it in your company directory (e.g. Azure AD, Okta), or

    • Ask your IT/admin team
