  • Hi @Ravina Those fields have specific meanings in Jira: created is when the issue was added to a Jira instance and resolved is when the issue has been marked with some resolution value. So importing either field would seem to change their purpose/meaning. What problem are you trying to solve by doing this? Kind regards,…

  • Hi @Wouter Mocking Is your API project a team-managed project (TMP) or a company-managed project (CMP)? If it is TMP you may be encountering this defect for showing such issues with subtasks on a CMP combined project board: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-23145 Kind regards, Bill

  • Hi @Lewandowski, Mikolaj -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Is this for a company-managed project (CMP) or a team-managed project (TMP)? CMP use the "Story points" field and TMP use the "Story point estimate" field, and so the correct field must be used in the lookup when summing for such a rule to work. Kind regards,…

  • Hi @Omer Farooq -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! What type of project is this, team-managed or company-managed? For quite a while, there was no horizontal scroll bar, making it more difficult to navigate Kanban boards with lots of columns. Some impacts to the display of columns on a Jira Kanban board include: *…

  • Hi @Rachana Nagar -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! I am curious: if your team uses different sizing for Dev and QA, how does the team conduct backlog refinement and sprint planning (or queue replenishment for Kanban)? For example, does the team collaborate to discuss work items? Thanks, and kind regards, Bill

  • Hi @Nicholas Ren -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Short answer: with a Jira board it is not possible for an issue to appear in multiple swim lanes. For a company-managed project (CMP) the swim lanes are selected by different criteria, including the option of use JQL on issue data. The order you place the JQL filters…

  • Hi @Mithila N Bhat First thing, I recommend creating a new question and linking to older ones for context. Otherwise only the people following this thread will see it, limiting the number of suggestions offered. Thanks! Next, for Jira Scrum boards the velocity report considers issues as done when the status is mapped to…
    in Sprint Report not showing all issues Comment by Bill Sheboy June 2022
  • You are correct; your scenario cannot be done with a Jira board. Other people agree this would be valuable. Here is a suggestion to add this feature to Jira, which you may vote for or watch to see progress: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-9807

  • Hi @Rahul Jith First thing, I recommend creating a new question, posting images of your rule and audit log details, and then linking to older threads like this one. Otherwise only the people following this old one will see your question. Thanks! For Jira Cloud, please take a look at the Lookup Issues…
    in Not able to find the option: Process all issues produced by this trigger in bulk Comment by Bill Sheboy June 2022
  • I am unclear what you mean by "using the JQL for creating the new board under the same project" as team-managed projects (TMP) can currently only have one board. Would you please clarify? One work-around is to use a filter for the TMP issues to create a board located in either a company-managed project (CMP) or an…
    in Manage multiple sprint (multiple board) for the same project Comment by Bill Sheboy June 2022
  • Hi @DIEGO DOS SANTOS CARDOSO I believe the short answer is: no, that is not possible as you have described it. For a Jira board's column, you may map multiple status values but they will not appear as sub-columns on the board. Instead you could add as many columns as you need independently if your team wants to track work…

  • Hi @Sebastian Toplician -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! When writing a query, the order of operations is important. The clauses with AND occur before OR, so I suspect you are running into that. Based on what you described, perhaps try the one below, which I reformatted for easier reading and wrapped any OR clauses…
    in How to Query (JQL) issues not in the current sprint? Comment by Bill Sheboy June 2022
  • Hi @JOSE TADEU ROSA JUNIOR -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! How do you know the deadline date? For example, if this is a date not stored in the Jira issue you could perform this query to find issues completed by the date, such as today's date. project = myProjectName AND resolved <= "2022-06-28" To find issues not…

  • Hi @Adishesh Seshagiri -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! There is a suggestion to add multiple boards support for team-managed projects, however it appears that work has paused (as of May 2022). Please see the suggestion for additional details: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-17371 The suggested work-around…

  • Hi @Brecht Lijnen Are you using a marketplace addon app for story maps, as I do not think there is a built-in feature for that in Jira Cloud? If so, you may want to check with the vendor for any limitations on the number of story maps. Kind regards, Bill

  • Hi @정현석 Adding to the answer from @Daniel Eads ... Are you using Jira Cloud or Data Center/Server version? I am asking as I note in your smart values references to {{issues}} plural, and my understanding is that only works in Data Center/Server version. To handle multiple issues with Jira Cloud please use the Lookup Issues…

  • The replacement functions work on one field at a time, not an entire issue. For example, to do this for just the Description field you could use the replace() or replaceAll() function, depending upon if you want to use a regular expression:…

  • Hi, Frank. Perhaps try first logging the entire body to find the correct location you want to search for the matches. What exactly are you trying to match on: id, name, etc.? If you just need the list of version id values, this would work: {{webhookResponse.body.values.id}}

  • Hi @Daniel Martin -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! I do not see the releaseDate() in out-of-the-box JQL functions. Are you using a marketplace addon to provide that feature? Kind regards, Bill

  • Hi @Matt Schindel -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! I do not believe there is such a report with out-of-the-box features. Perhaps check the Atlassian Marketplace, looking for reports/dashboard gadgets that can show an issue's status over time. And/or...pause and consider what problem are you trying to solve by doing…
    in weekly trend in status Comment by Bill Sheboy June 2022
  • I recommend finding an example issue (or a few of them) which the filter returns with a stand-alone search and which does not display on the board, and then carefully review it to observe what might be different.
    in Some issues are not visible on the Board Comment by Bill Sheboy June 2022
  • Hi @Jonathan Domanus I believe that is the "Create Issues" permission. Have you considered changing your rule actor (user) to be one with the permissions needed for the rule to work? Unless you need the {{initiator}} information this may be a simpler approach. Kind regards, Bill
    in Automation Rule "Could not find your configured field, it may have been deleted?" Comment by Bill Sheboy June 2022
  • Agreed: firing the global rule for every comment and then not processing could be an processing hit...and I would measure that to confirm the impact before trying anything different/more complicated. Depending upon what "do something good" is and how soon you need it after the comment is added...How about inverting this:…

  • Hi @Julie Sgroi Adding to Craig's questions... Is this board located in a company-managed or a team-managed project? If company-managed, is the board filter selecting issues from multiple projects? Kind regards, Bill
    in Some issues are not visible on the Board Comment by Bill Sheboy June 2022
  • Sorry I missed this earlier, as your JQL is incorrect: it is comparing issues to themselves...Within a branch {{issue}} refers to the branching issue and not the trigger issue. Please try this for your JQL: Project = PSTS AND issueType IN ("Case Lead Task", "Technical Writing Task") AND "Document number" ~…

    in Sending Teams mentions from automation Comment by Bill Sheboy June 2022
  • Hi @Elizabeth Paredes -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community! Possible suggestions depend upon what you consider an "easy way" and how you are representing the project number and various tasks. I believe you need to provide more information for the community to offer ideas. For example...do you have all of your tasks stored…

    in When I am trying to create issue in Jira through API getting "project is required" error. Comment by Bill Sheboy June 2022
  • Yes, and...even within Jira there are things that are not directly possible from automation rule actions. Using web requests to call the Jira (and other) REST APIs can help fill in those feature gaps. To learn more about calling a REST API from a rule, please see this article:…
