Remove impediment/flag transition screen

Question

Is there any possibility to remove the transition screen, which appears when removing the flag on the Kanban board?

I did not find any configuration on a transition or screen.

Since the flag cannot be removed in the issue detail view, the board is the only place where it can be removed. And there you always have the useless add comment screen...

Hi @Bill Sheboy

Thanks a lot, that works.

However my original request was how to remove the transition screen, asking for a comment. This transition screen is completely useless. And I would like to remove it.

Thanks, Sebastian

Hi @Sebastian Jopen

Until that suggestion is implemented... As a work-around you could add a couple of manually triggered automation rules, one to set and one to clear Flagged.  You may run the rule directly from the issue view.

Please look here to learn more about automation rules:
