Hi Manikandan, what do you mean by "updating the role". Changing the role memberships in projects? That's not how they are supposed to work intended by Atlassian, it's the opposite and would make them somewhat similar to groups. Best, Max

Hi Thao, counting issues in a project is easy. Use the issue navigator and only search for issues in a specific project, e.g. project = YourProject. Maybe not a very sophisticated approach but you will get the number of results and that's what you want. Depending on the number of projects you have to check, that can mean…

To be honest, I haven't used that condition in combination with a Single Select List and I'm not sure how this is supposed to work. In other words how Jira will map a more or less "meaningless" list of values to a group membership of users. You can still use a Group Picker custom field and add only specific users to the…

Hi Parameeta, you said it yourself. You are using a User picker custom field and try to fin the field in a Group Picker custom field. That won't work of course. The condition you're trying to use accepts other kinds of fields if I remember correctly but not the one you're using. By default Jira does not offer a wide…

So cool!! :D

Hi Marco, a task on a Confluence page is not comparable to an event type in Team Calendars. So anyone please correct me, but you will have to maintain such things in Team Calendars as well and not on a Confluence page unfortunately. There are a few open feature requests are regarding this. Best, Max

Hi Kevin, The issue collector creates issues just like a regular user or more specific using the defined default reporter you have set up in the issue collector or matched user account. There's nothing special about that process in general. Before answering further detailed question, you went through the documentation…

I think the sync of changes to your Atlassian ID takes some time to be reflected on all connected platforms/portals, even days. At least that's what I experienced when I changed my user name.

Happy anniversary! What a ride so far :) Really enjoy this community.

Hi Thrinay, can you provide some more information about the field and the setup? Because if you set a field required in the field configuration it will definitely not be possible to select (and save) "None" as value. Best, Max

Hi Ignacio, are you yet using any workflow apps in Jira? For example Jira Misc Workflow Extensions, ScriptRunner or Jira Workflow Toolbox (Which is our own product)? Because for such use cases we implemented a function in the past called "leastBusyUserInRole" (user with the least amount of unresolved issues in Jira/a…

Oh great. I love that. Please share a picture with us. That is sooo good :D

Hi James, we all know that Jira can be a bit overwhelming in the beginning with all the schemes etc. but did you come across this page of the documentation and the picture explaining the different mappings? That's a good point to start with a deeper understanding of all the things :) Project screens, schemes and fields.…

Hi James, if you delete a project and different schemes etc. have been created for it (or existing ones have been associated with the project), they will not be deleted as well. Issue types won't be deleted as they are available in your instance and then assigned to a project using a scheme. So you have to do some cleaning…

Hi Anna, you're referencing the documentation article for Confluence Server. Currently it is not possible on Cloud, see the improvement ticket: CLOUD-2636 Best, Max

Hi Stephen, as far as I know you alway have to use the "Move" operation and then assign it to a new parent (the dialog will offer this) but you can not change the parent via drag and drop on a board (what I assume you want to do). Best, Max

Hi Julian, apart from disabling/removing the Create button using javascript, I'm not aware (but also very interested in a solution) of any way to change the behaviour of the Create button. There is an open request dealing with that CONFSERVER-44327 "Disable "Quick Create" Button Feature / Change "Create" Button Behavior"…

Hi Felicity, using the built-in tasks I think what you want, can not be achieved. The task feature in Confluence is very, very basic (Of course, if you can have Jira as well) and the Task report macro needs certain filters to build the report. And that task can not live outside a page unfortunately. Did you have a closer…

Yep, thanks for the recording! Great! :)

Hi Matthew, not sure if I understand correctly. The "button" is the macro. What keeps you from adding the macro and pointing at the template on the regular page you're using as home page for a space? Or do you mean the dashboard of your Confluence?

Hi Mustafa, a good solution for you depends on a few things you have to think through and your users as well. Do you still want to access the issues for example and want them to be searchable? You could use a specific status for archived issues and exclude them from filters, use a custom field as indication for an archived…

Hi Mattie, could you briefly explain that in more detail please? What did you do to solve that? Because I don't get it at this point :) You were able to see the field but not edit it, so I'm not sure what mean by "activating" it.

Hi Matteo, could you please provide a screenshot where exactly it is greyed out and not editable so we're speaking about the same thing? Thanks!

Hi Matteo, general question. You got the Edit Issues permission, right? And when you say "you can't edit it", you mean by inline editing it, correct? If so, have you added the Due Date to the screen associated with the Edit operation? If not, please do so and you will be able to edit it on the view issue screen. Best, Max

Hi John, how the macro renders the date depends on the overall language settings of your instance, language setting in the user profile and your browser (in that order). It's not affected by the the Date Time Format you just changed. Best, Max

Hey Shrikant, were you able to solve your problem? Best, Max

Hi Matthew, were you able to solve your problem with my answer? If yes, I'd appreciate it if you could accept my answer as solution (checkmark on the left hand side of my post) Best, Max

Hi, were you able to solve your problem with my answer? If yes, I'd appreciate it if you could accept my answer as solution (checkmark on the left hand side of my post) Best, Max

Hi Clemens, was the support able to solve this problem for you? Best, Max

Hey Jackie, were you able to solve your problem with my answer? If yes, I'd appreciate it if you could accept my answer as solution (checkmark on the left hand side of my post) Best, Max
