Why are my project key and id always empty

Question

Hi,

I am new to the Jira apps, so I thought I give it a go..

But I encounter a problem and I don't understand why.

I have this json uploaded:

"modules": {
"jiraProjectPages": [
{
"url": "/Jira/view.aspx?projectId=${project.id}&projectKey={project.key}",
"weight": 100,
"key": "project-2-iteration",
"name": {
"value": "Link project to Iteration"
}
}
]
}

but projectId and projectKey are always empty.

When I inspect the iframe url in the browser I can see that hey are empty..

What am I doing wrong?

Ah, it's part of an app, not a script, sorry, I did not grasp that from the question.

I have not yet coded for Cloud Jira, so I don't know the answer to this one.  It feels like the variables should be fed to your code by the framework it's running in, but I don't know where to look next for them.  Sorry.

I did exactly as this page suggested to me:

Is it perhaps some kind of rights an user needs before the information is send to the iframe?

Where in your script are you setting the variables for project id and project key?
