Enable/disable mail functionality from remote

Question

Hi Community,

Is it possible to enable/disable (outbound) mail functionality without restarting a Jira instance?

I need this functionality to be able to turn mail functionality on or off as needed in my staging environments. I would prefer to be able to do this via REST API but haven't found anything about it.

Thanks, Rolf

Apologies, my response was only to your first question.

I do not think this is possible with REST, no.

Hi @Piet Pieters

Thank you very much for your reply.

I am serching for a remote operation. A REST API call or something similar, because I want to make this function controllable from outside for my staging environments.

Best regards, Rolf

Hi @Rolf Lader ,

you can go to Administration > System > Outgoing mail and disable it from there.
