Welcome to the Community! Go into the issue and look for the "move" option in the tools, this will offer you the option to change project and/or issue type.

I have to question why you don't want to use permissions for this, and also why you think there is any point in it. What is the benefit of removing an option from a menu, one that you still want people to be able to do, and now have to cast around with fiddly url building to be able to do it? What do you gain from making…

You could need to create a new editable field and duplicate the key into it, writing a listener that can populate it on every change to an issue or a post-function that populates it on every transition, because the field would be offered to the user as an editable thing on the screen and you would want to throw away any…

Welcome to the Community! There are a couple of things that might cause this error. The obvious one is the one you have ruled out - the subscription has not been renewed. The others are that your account does not have space access, or the page has been restricted away from you. In all of these cases though, you will need…

Welcome to the Community! No, there's nothing built-in, you'll need one of the diagram apps to do this. Take a look in the marketplace for Smartdraw, Gliffy, Draw.io and so-on.

There's two things here. 1. The plugin is misusing the concept of a board. It should not be trying to create issues on a board, it should be trying to create issues in a project. The board is not a container for issues, it is a view of a selection. 2. From the errors, my best guess is that the account the plugin is using…

The team who are going to do the work are the ones who should estimate the story. It makes no sense for estimates to be made by anyone else because people outside the team simply have no idea how the team are going to get it done. Typically in Scrum, the team is a scrum master, a product owner and several developers. The…

Welcome to the Community! You will need to talk to your administrators, they can add items to fields for you to select from

Welcome to the Community! Access to pages in Confluence can become quite complex, but there are broadly three places to start looking at: Go to Admin -> Space settings -> space permissions and check that the people you want to see it have access. Your people need space access no matter what the rest is. The second layer is…

Jira does not implement hashtags (not a bad thing, hashtags are not useful in issue tracking) Could you explain what you are looking for in a bit more detail? What problem are you trying to solve?

You can, but to do it, you need to edit the settings for each sprint, and that's a) painful and b) throwing off your reporting. One of the points of Agile is that you cannot assume 100% availability of the team, you need to adjust to what they can, not what you tell them they should. It does sound like a bodge, but the…

Welcome to the Community! There are two parts to look at here, thanks to the complexity/flexibility of Jira. > We have estimated time (actual time in days, hours not story points) against the sub-tasks within a story. For some reason the story doesn't add all of these estimates together Actually it does. If you are doing…

Our Friday nights are very variable, heavily influenced by our own lives before we met, and the patterns have changed. Chrissy had a much more modern English upbringing than I did, she grew up in a family where Friday night was the end of the working week for both school-kids and her mother, and mostly her dad too. I,…

Yes, your code should use an Oauth token to login as an authorised account. You don't need maven or openssl to do that, Python can do it.

Welcome to the Community! As an issue tracker, Jira tracks all change on the issues, and that's where the data for historical changes on sprints, epics and everything else is kept. So, the simple answer to "how can I get that data" is "look at the history for the issues". But that's not a lot of help to you, I think. Could…

If you never saved the page, I'm afraid there's no backup to go back to. A draft will have been backed up, but you say half of it is missing, so only the version of the draft without the missing bits can be backed up. I don't think there's anything that can be done here, I think whatever your browser did that removed all…

* Fields can only be made mandatory globally with a field configuration, it's nothing to do with screens or transitions. What you can do is make them optional globally, but then put "validators" on transitions that can check if a field is being filled in, or has a value, and block the transition if they are not * No. Not…

That's a failure to follow the installation routine, nothing to do with the version you are using. How is your original Confluence installed? What did you do differently to the install guide?

I tend to agree - expand sections are built in, simple and short, but I don't think they're good for large pages. They do not seem right for "same page in #n different languages". I think your idea of using tabs is far better, one tab per language option works for me (I've seen it in a couple of places and the seamless…

Bitbucket is not packaged as an RPM by Atlassian, they only provide non-package-managed installer binaries and simple archive files (for an archive install, you unzip or un-tar the download and manually edit some of the config files in it to do the basic settings) So when you ask "where do we get…

Project Categories are created by your admins, it's a variable list. A new Jira will not have any, there's no default standard list. You'll want to question your admins as to what the categories are in your system.

If you are not offered the option to create a Kanban project when you click "create project", then either * You do are not set up as a Jira Software user (you may be a Jira Work Management and/or a Jira Service Management user, but not a Software user) * You do not have Jira Software installed Can you check if either of…

It's really well buried in the docs, and there was a time when it was right - if I remember rightly, the version of Jira that simplified workflows arrived in only let you simplify if the board was based on just "project = xyz", it wouldn't do it if the query had any other clauses (other than the order by). I think the next…

Eh? That's not what the component lead is for. The person responsible for dealing with an issue is the assignee, not the component lead. The component lead is the person who has responsibility/expertise/resource for working with the component, not the issue.

There are two things in your question that jump out at me: 1. Rank does not *visibly* sort the way you think it does. You should not be looking at the value in the field. (I'm not saying the values you've given us are wrong or are not sorting the way you are assuming, it is a more general point that "order by rank" will…

I was at home in the morning, and at work in the afternoon. Because my employer at the time had been hit with a y2k bug that crippled their networks and I went to the main data centre to set up machines so that people could go there to do their jobs - the servers running all the trading, finance and provisioning systems…

No, the assignee is a single person, because multiple assignees is a disaster in real life and should never be allowed. There should be one single person assigned as the person responsible for dealing with an issue (even if they're just going to delegate the work to others, it's their responsibility). A desire for multiple…

The import process should have thrown out one or more error messages for every issue it could not import, telling you why it failed. In most cases, this would have gone to the screen in front of you, but for some of the more complex errors, it might have written the errors to the log, while just saying "import failed" on…

The app is not supported because DC includes it as part of the core now. If you are planning to move to DC by doing a clean install and then importing your old data, you don't need to do anything, you don't need to install the app, it's already there. If you are converting an existing server instance with Team Calendars…

Could you explain what this has to do with an Atlassian system? Postgres is the favoured database for Atlassian stuff, but your question does not seem to be about that?
