After a recent update, the top search bar in Jira Cloud now searches across all Atlassian products (Confluence, Bitbucket, etc.) by default. Previously, it searched Jira issues only, which was much faster and more relevant for daily work.
Current behavior: Typing in the top search bar returns results from Confluence pages, Bitbucket repos, and other products mixed in with Jira issues. This adds noise and slows down finding the right issue.
Expected behavior: The top search bar should either search Jira issues only (as it did before), or provide a user setting to choose the default search scope.
Impact: This significantly slows down workflows for users who primarily work in Jira and rely on quick issue search throughout the day.
Request: Please add an option to configure the default search scope, or allow reverting to the previous Jira-only search behavior.
