Looking at our issue screens every screen shows the various 3rd party add ons that we subscribe to. Some of the projects don't need to see various 3rd party options. Is there a way to hide add ons from various issue screens?
No, because they might be used.
That's a short sighted approach. We have a quoting add on that we use in our sales project. I can guarantee that nobody who is working our dev projects will ever need to use the quoting add on. There should be an ability to hide any item when creating an issue screen.
So how is it "short sighted" to let people use functions they may need or benefit from?
I don't see how it's worth spending time coding for, and then having admins have to set up flags for "hide", when "if you don't need it, don't click it" covers the case.
Flexibility in configuration. Why do I need teams to see functionality they will never use. I'd rather use the screen real estate for things they use.
This is a common concern in Jira environments where multiple third-party apps are installed across projects. In most cases, Jira does not provide native functionality to selectively hide or disable add-ons on specific issue screens. Once an app is enabled at the instance level, it typically becomes available across all relevant projects based on how the vendor has implemented it. The only real control usually comes from app-specific permissions or configuration settings, if supported. Otherwise, the visibility is global. It would be valuable if Atlassian introduced more granular, project-level control to reduce UI clutter in large multi-project setups.
