Great insights, Dave. And an excellent article. I found this line one of my favorites: “The more important benefit may be that being wrong gets cheaper.” I was only thinking the other day about the old “project management triangle” many of us are no doubt familiar with: The project management triangle is made up of three…

Hi @pcrooker , What are the detailed steps you're trying when "cloning the repo with git using https"? For example, In what environment or git client are you running the clone command? (Windows terminal, Git Bash, etc.) It's important to remember, authentication for git over https is different to ssh. So if authentication…

Hey @Mia Tamm _Simpleasyty_ Agreed, and I think that's the right way to think about it. What makes status useful is that it's not something you have to guess from reading the ticket. It's baked into the workflow, it sticks with the item, and it's already sitting there as data, not just words on the page. Ownership,…

Hey @__ Jimi Wikman , Thanks for reading, and for your comments. You've hit a lot of nails (some rusty ones) right on the head. A few of your first comment's takeaways I find will ring true, and loud, for many teams. What you describe is what I would call an unprofessional workplace with low organisational readiness to…

Hi @Chris May , You raise a great question. Developers in my workplace often have lively conversations over which coding agent produces the best results. Being a software engineer myself, I've definitely been part of such conversations; they often morph into debates. From my experience there's plenty of AI coding stories…

Hi @Sergio Abdallah Rios Ramos In addition to the answers provided so far, I'd like to offer my thoughts as well as I've not that long ago faced the same scenarios at work. "Not having Atlassian Guard in Cloud target instance could be a migration blocker?" A: Not having Guard is absolutely not a blocker. However, you…

Hi @Svetlana Mandrosova , In addition to the the two viable solutions suggested so far, I'd like to offer you a third. This solution requires your Jira instance to have access to Rovo capabilities and the ability to create new agents via studio.atlassian.net. If you're not familiar with these tools or whether you have…

This is the best news post I've read all day, although it IS still an early 5am here in AU. :D I immediately love these designs! I became closely acquainted with the retired designs, and I must say, the new tiered style framework in place resolves all the previous inconsistency "niggles" that sat with me. Looks like I…

Thanks @Dave LIAO 🙏🏻 I’m honestly impressed with the speed at which Whiteboards is improving. Shortcut keys, like ‘S’ for stickie, are highly underrated. In fact, this encourages me to revisit shortcut keys across the Jira/Confluence platform more broadly. ⚡️💪 A likely underrated “quick-feeling” feature I’d also call out…

Yeah I need to peel another article idea of the backlog 😁 and yes I have a ”I must write about that” style backlog in one of my personal Jira boards 🤣

🎄 Christmas Lights 🎄 I'm using the Atlassian platform to manage my 2026 Christmas Light display. The scrum side of things has fully kicked off (as at June) with a 10 Sprint Timeline. The Atlassian platform is a powerful tool for managing anything! My XMAS space is leveraging many of the long standing Jira capabilities,…

Hi @Vladyslav Berezhetskyi , Thanks for the detailed post, you've provided a lot of context to work off. My first question is: * Do you hold any Atlassian Admin roles, such as site Jira Administrator or Org Admin? In addition to Rovo Agent configuration and skill enablement, there are a couple of other places that you'll…

Hi Jatin - Thanks for the swift and precise answer. I didn't want to assume the controls are on the horizon, so it's great to know they are and are of highest priority.

Hi @Daphne Zhang Do you have any recommendations regarding the (secure) use of Org Admin API calls inside Atlassian Automations? My assumption is the direct endpoint invocations in this article via Curl assist with automation of admin operations when coupled with some form of orchestration or middleware? I'm specifically…

That's absolutely right, @Trudy P Claspill . You can't query or display Jira board objects via JQL. However, by creating a new filter with one minor tweak, we can get a little bit closer to answering the original question: "how many sprints on his/her current board originated from a different board" Create a new filter for…

Hi @Corinne Guibert , There's no settings available as of right now to control the appearance or existence of this panel. (Features do change and rollout quickly however.) This Jira suggestion request ticket shares similar concerns as yours. https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/ROVO-910 Cheers, Ben

Hi @Josephine_Tina_ Albert , Welcome to the community forums! There's quite a bit to unpack with your question but I'm confident this simple dashboard solution should provide the information you seek. Why do other sprints appear on your board? In Jira, sprints are tied to work items, not boards. If your board's underlying…

Hi @Warren_ Jodi did you manage to find an avenue for raising a ticket? You're required to be signed in to log tickets. Also the support options available are based on the app subscription level. For example, I know some free-tier subscriptions have fewer support options than paid plans. I hope this helps. Ben

Hi Warren_ Jodi, My assessment is the behaviour your seeing is a current gap in the acli wrapper for "edit work item". To add weight to this theory you can run the commands: * acli jira workitem create --generate-json * acli jira workitem edit --generate-json You will see the supported json shape includes…

Hi Rui, What does your payload look like for the import execution post request? Here's a few things to check that might be causing this error: * Ensure the custom fields mentioned (customfield_10324, customfield_10325, customfield_10326) are on the Xray "Test" work item's screen configuration. * Ensure the user being used…

Hi Rick, From what you've shown here, your agent looks to be producing some excellent rationale in it's response. I see a few options available that I'd try: * Parse the story points from the agentResponse* Ensure your agent will provide at least the consistent story point estimate as displayed in your example: "Estimate:…

Hi Ling, Welcome to the Jira Community. Let's see if we can help you troubleshoot this error. Are you able to list in a bit more detail the steps you're taking to create a trial site? The small details will usually help a lot in identifying what's going wrong. Regards, Ben

Hi @Rachel Gonzales Here's a few avenues to look into: * The Roadmaps functionality is available for Jira Product Discovery Premium subscriptions. Ensure you're subscription tier for JPD is at the required level. * The "Create" button for a new Roadmap lists already established Product Discovery spaces. There's no inline…

@Dan Leatherwood If you think you can throw together an example, that would be most helpful. I'll take a look at alternate options using native Jira DC automation capabilities, as there is limited potential for some "data-driven" concepts similar to my original guidance. DC does lack advanced branching support though,…

Hi @Bill Sheboy I've amended my original answer content to avoid current and potential future confusion. I appreciate your quick response in pointing out my oversight in feature parity between DC and Cloud. Please assume positive intent with my original answer. I will put it on my list to publish a formal "how-to" article…

Hi @Dan Leatherwood Does this refactored interpretation below align with your requirement(s)? If it's getting close I could throw together a working example to demonstrate. The goal is to dynamically choose between two structural patterns when the request is submitted and automation rule triggered: * Pattern A: The Full…

UPDATE: * My I offer my sincere apologies @Dan Leatherwood. I've overlooked the substantial difference in automation capabilities between Jira DC and Cloud. * My suggested solution does require advanced features of Jira Cloud automations, such as:* Advanced branching (e.g. For each: Smart value) * Trigger conditions * As…

Since you're using GoDaddy, the 'verbatim' copy-paste might be a culprit. There's suggestions that GoDaddy automatically appends your domain name to the Host field. Try this if you haven't done so already: edit that specific record and delete your domain name from the end of the Host/Name box, leaving only the…

Hi @Brandon Peterson , To clarify, are you following the verification steps under Admin > Organization Settings > Emails > Email domains? Here's a few things to check with the setup of the DKIM Active record: * Prefix Over-labeling: Ensure the "Host" field only contains the prefix (e.g., atlassian-xxx._domainkey) to avoid…

Hi @Paul Glantschnig _Appfire_ Thanks for the additional insights. After reading your reply I found my suggested solution required a very minor tweak to become a single rule instead of two. Dealing with parent/child relationships in automations can be fiddly for sure. I found the "Asset objects" field type differed subtly…
