How to hide Rovo Dev from the UI?

Question

Rovo Dev seems to be disabled in our workspace, which is correct as our organisation has policies on which AI can be used, and doesn't have any plans to use it at the moment. Unfortunately it is still present on the UI for PRs. This uses valuable space in the sidebard and pushes  features we do use (the task list) down off the bottom of the screen.

Is there a way to remove Rovo Dev from the UI completely?

Atlassian seems to take this approach with various features which is rather annoying. For example, we don't use Bitbucket Pipelines and they are disabled, but the item is still there in the sidebar.

Hi @DE

As your paid workspace is a legacy workspace (personal), the owner of the workspace (the user who created the workspace - hint: it's in the workspaceID) will need to login and disable it from Workspace Settings:

* Navigate to Workspace Settings > Atlassian Integrations > RovoDev
* Switch the Use Rovo Dev code review in this workspace slider to OFF 
* Clear browser cache and attempt to load PR's again - you should no longer see the RovoDev at all

If you still encounter issues, please raise a ticket directly with our support team - as a ticket is needed for our system to allow us to grant ourselves the necessary access to make changes:

* https://support.atlassian.com/contact

If you aren't able to raise a ticket - please let me know your timezone so I may raise one on your behalf with the team who operates during your working hours.

Cheers!

I have just tried to access the Rovo "App" via the app switcher and selecting "Try it now". The next page stated that use of the app needs to be approved by the organisation, so it would seem Rovo is fully disabled, but that doesn't affect it appearing in the UI?

The above screenshot shows the sidebar of PRs, with both Rovo Dev and Reports available, but non-functional as they are disabled or not configured (other sections collapsed for privacy reasons). Collapsing the sections helps but they still take up space on the screen, each user has to do this, and in the case of Rovo it appears above features we are using.

I tried to follow the site level instructions at the provided link, but Rovo Dev isn't available in the list of apps. I don't have access to organisation level. I could request it be changed, however, it should be possible to remove this at project or repo level.
