Dick Community Champion

Hi @Mohamed Saad Taha , I'm sorry I've missed your question yesterday. Could you help me provide you an answer by telling me more about what your Dev team requires of you? One of the unique values you can use right out of the box is the key of the Jira-issue. Maybe we can use that to come to a solution. Do come with some…

Hi @Bill Martin I looked-up the round robin principle for this one :) With a single cue of workers couldn't you just assign two people (one for the first workflow, the other for the next workflow and be done with assigning in one script? Are there some preliminaries you're encountering that would throw a spanner in the…

Hi @Ray Williams , welcome to the Atlassian Community. To combat their inherent size, movies are compressed by algorithms. There are many kinds of algorithms about (Compression algorithms) The trick is: To view a movie, your computer needs to decipher it from the compressed form. This decryption step needs either software…

Hi @Christoph Keßler, Maintaining the list of people is necessary either way. So why not maintain it in the Automation within Jira? You can make it really easy in Automation for the not-so-apt persons by choosing to define a couple of variables that hold the assignees, then uses the variables in the remainder of your…

Hello @THIRUMURUGAN SIVAJI, There could be a number of reasons why you can't see the content of a project. Together with your local administrator, you should check for the project at hand: * Have you been assigned a project role? (Project Lead is not a role!) * Is that role associated with the viewing permission in the…

Hi @Stefanie Ramsay , you've done it correctly. Have you done it for each transition in your workflow? The order of the statuses should follow the order of the numbers of the transitions you have put in. I must tell you, I postulated this answer, since it orders the status list when editing an issue: I hope this helps,…

Hi @Stefanie Ramsay , welcome Yes there is. when editing a workflow, you can select the diagram mode. In this mode, you click on an arrow that represents the status change process, then a small window opens on the right, with a link under the Options: Properties click Properties and a new window opens with the Transition…

Hi @Nur Fatin As you want to 1) keep all previous information in the system form and 2) want to use only the new form, you need to migrate (merge, you call it) the issues from one issuetype to the other. This is perfectly possible using an issue move, I hope this helps, Dick

Hi @Samir Arab , and welcome to this community. We're all about helping each other out, solving problems together. I'm curious what problem you are encountering, as your post is not revealing many details. Don't be shy, we're here to help Dick

Hi @George Davitaya , The branch is for doing something to the child-items, not creating them You need to store the key of the created epic into a variable, i.e. {{newEpic}} Then you create a story and put the variable into the epic link field. Hope this helps, Dick 

As @Walter Buggenhout mentioned, communication is key in agile projects. It blossoms only in a safe environment, where people can freely speak their minds. If the project managers described by the OP have multiple projects under their wings (read: have a wider-scoped interest across these teams) the two-tier-project…

@Trudy Claspill, I fully agree with you that it would be helpful to have some clarification about names of the projects, boards and filters. Deduction from the original question, we have: * Projects called "Main Board", "Frontend Team", "Backend team" and "TT" * Boards called "Main Board", "BT Board" and "FT Board"…

Hi @Marcos Marinho You can make a board with a filter encompassing the exact issues you would like to see using this filter: project = JSW OR (project = JSM AND issuetype= Bug) Best regards, Dick

Hi @Alicia Guerra and welcome to the community! There is no such control over the Quickfilter button placement, however, you could assign the 4 top filters to individual swim lanes, which avoids the need to have them on top of the screen. I hope this will aid in your visualisation, Dick

We're here to help, there's a lot of experts here that know a lot more than I do. It's a good thing you found us. 

You can combine projects in the Jira Plans View (Roadmap view) and have a Gantt chart visible that can help you plan the work and the interactions between different teams. It can provide you with information on the critical path to reaching certain goals. We use it in our University to map out the next quarter increments…

Ah, so the 4-5 sprints are more like parallel sprints rather than consecutive sprints. I would suggest having a project defined for the offshore team, as their work should reside on their project. (they still can contribute to other projects by using links).

Hi @chad.leblanc, welcome to this community. Jira is all about supporting the agile way of working. When I read your question, I cannot help wondering why you would like to have 4-5 sprints ahead of the current one. Time spent on arranging these sprints could also have been used to update the backlog. Agility is best…

@[deleted] , Both a Kanban and Scrum boards only look at the Jira-items you select for them. This means that for both boards, the status of these Jira-items is the same. Do take into account, as Jira is a web-application, that you need to refresh the content of your browser to see any changes that have happened between the…

Hi @[deleted] , welcome to this community We appreciate a good question, yet you're making stuff unnecessary difficult for yourself, your team and this community, by your choice of project names. Projects are the tree which branches (the epics) hold the leaves (the Jira issues) A board is just a pair of glasses to look at…

Hi @Mishika Singh , welcome to the Atlassian Community, Your bug report would be most appreciated at Atlassian Jira Software Cloud Tickets There it will certainly be picked up by the developers that make Jira better than ever. This forum is for hands-on questions/ how-to's etc, giving you a place to go to when you want to…

Hi Venkata, A move to cloud is best done with a "lean and mean" version of your Jira instance. So I recommend cleaning out the old stuff prior to your move. As a side bonus, the footprint of your instance will be smaller. Better for the world, better for your wallet. I wish you a safe passage of your Jira instance from…

Hi Mimi, A board is best seen as a pair of glasses to look at: * Issues in a project ( all the leaves of the complete project tree) * Parts of a project (the leaves of only certain branches of the project tree) * Issues in multiple projects (all the leaves of a number of project trees) * Parts of multiple projects (the…

Hi @Sophie Bruxner-Randall , welcome to the community! You can use automation to set-up the issues that belong to a single newsletter. Either triggering it from the menu, or when i.e. an epic is created. Stick to Kanban, maybe add necessary statuses / columns in your board to really capture the workflow of your team. If…

Hi @Rathi You're in luck, as I've dealt with the exact same problem during my first year as admin. The way to approach this problem goes like this: * Create a sprint in the desired board using a different name * From the two (!) offending sprints:* Move the issues you like to work on (all) to that new sprint * Move the…

It's a good thing that API calls require authentication. Said authentication is also applicable to the results a user can obtain from the Jira data inside the instance.

Hi Sherwin, You determine the string of characters that defines the unique value you want. The bulk edit will use what you define by filling the blank field. Any issue that was selected when starting the bulk change will have that unique value set for it (all will have the same entry). Regards, Dick

Always nice to get to know a new feature. Thanks Walter!

Vincenzo, what is the value of the smart value {{version}} from your automation? 

Okay, then it's not a complete string array, but an array of objects needing the single curly braces to encompass each element in the array... {"fields": { "fixVersions": [ {{#issue.fixVersions}}{"id": "{{id}}"},{{/}}{"id": "{{version}}"} <strong> </strong> ] }}Can you log the value of smart…
