Browser page refreshes after issues are opened

Question

This issue relates to Jira Software cloud. It is experienced by multiple users in the company.

In the kanban board view, when we click on an issue to open the issue view, after a few seconds the page is whole page is refreshed. This is frustrating, wastes time and can lead to erroneous selections.

@Alex Tsekenis Thanks for the update. Alternatively, you can contact Atlassian Support directly. They probably already know about this issue if the company you mentioned has resolved it by contacting Atlassian.

@Michel Neeser To answer your questions, the issue is reproducible over different networks/configs, including home networks. Also, to clarify what I said in the previous comment, the issue view page has already fully loaded before the page refresh happens, without user prompt.

The good news is that for the last day we seem to not have the issue anymore, no changes made on our side. Speaking with staff, one of them has experienced the issue before working at a multinational defence company, and they resolved it in a couple of days by contacting Atlassian. I am still not sure what the issue is/was or how it was resolved for them, but everything is pointing to something on the Atlassian side.

We will monitor the issue in the next few days and if it happens again I will see to contact someone at that other company to find out what was causing it for them and will post any info here.

The fact that you have to wait a few seconds for the page to load, and that the issue is reproducible on multiple machines makes me think of a networking issue. This may explain the reload of the page after opening an issue.

Are you using a VPN or a special network configuration? Is the issue persisting if you try it in another network, for example from your home network?
