Jira Labs/New Issue View - How to turn it off for everyone and for good

Question

Hello all,

New JIRA and Confluence user here, I've been looking around to see if it's possible to turn off the "new issue view" permanently. I've seen a lot of mixed results. I have also seen a ton of heated opinions on the matter, some I agree with, others I don't.

What I want to know is...

1) Can I disable Jira Labs/New Issue View for good?

2) Can I disable it by default for users/projects

3) Is the "New issue view" going to be forced at some point across the board, not just for next-gen-software projects or business projects?

Thank you,

AJ

I agree. I've looked around the community and seem all sorts of responses, mostly negative.

I just wanted an official Atlassian response as of 2019 if my questions could be answered or expanded on.

Hi @AJ Palmer

Per several other posts I have seen in the community, global disable is not an option yet.

It would be great if someone from Atlassian would respond to these requests for a global disable.  Experiments are great: that is one way to learn about fit/function for a product change.  And, changing more often than than your customers will accept is also valuable info.

Best regards,

Bill
