Prevent ticket updates on "Resolved" tickets

Barry Evans_956k99

Hi,

I would like to stop my customers from being able to comment on "Resolved" tickets and send a message that say something like "The ticket is closed, raise a new one"

I have extensively researched this, but have been unable too find a suitable solution.

I can disable comments on a ticket of a certain status, by following the instructions here:

Solved: How can I prevent comments on a closed issue? (atlassian.com)

However when using this method, if the user replies on email to a "Resolved" ticket, because the correct permissions don't exist a new ticket is created!

I have also looked into using Automation, but the only trigger I can find is when ticket comments are updated, which is too late as I want to prevent ticket updates on "Resolved" tickets.

Is anyone able to recommend a way to achieve this?

Thanks

Barry

Hi Barry,

I haven’t tried this in a long time but may give it a shot in a little bit you may want to see if it works for you. 

use jira.permission.comment=denied in the resolved step. 

Please note that you also mentioned that you want to inform do use are attempting to comment to open a new ticket. The only way to do this is to allow them to comment and use automation to then respond immediately to the customer. I realize you mentioned this in your post and appeared not to want to do so, however, I feel this is the best solution personally.
