You can't just cast an object to another type if the objects are totally different. An option is not a number and has nothing in common with a number. You will need to code rules that read the option and set a number, or if your select list really will only have numbers as their option names, then you could use the…

No, Jira has no way to hide people - you can either see and search for everyone, or you can not. The "browse users" permission in global permissions is simply on or off for a person.

No, the issue key is always shown when it's useful.

The api can be used to extract the data that the report is built on, but you'll need to code to draw the graph.

People who ask for a field like this often fall into a bit of a minefield, and I would encourage you to think it through before you try to implement anything like this. At first look, the simple human description of "number of days that have passed since" (or "number of days to", or other variants with hours, weeks,…

Not sure what you're reading about the ordering, as that is not the problem in the slightest. The problem is that sub-tasks do not have an Epic Link (much as I'm an Atlassian fan, this is absolutley one that they've got totally wrong). The Epic a sub-task belongs to is that of its parent issue (it has to be, a sub-task is…

Ah, ok, it's spotting the . and hence assuming it's a link because it looks like one. There's nothing you can do about this I'm afraid, it looks like a link to the software.

What is the abbreviation?

You'll need to find or write something that can search and index the files. If you want to use that index in Confluence searches, you'll need to code for that too, or write your app so that it does the indexing in Confluence's index.

Not that I know of. I question why you think you want it though - unless you've lost an old unsupported system and have failed to back it up properly?

That's a question for Pendo - how do you amend the code for that so that it can run the code that Jira provides for you.

It's the whole account, the one that owns the board.

You don't. There's nothing there any more, the vendor dropped support for its apps and left the marketplace years ago.

Yes and no. Yes you can add whatever fields you like to the exports. But, no in this case, because you can only add fields from the issue being exported. Fields on other issues are not part of the current issue, so they cannot be exported as part of the current issue. You can probably see where I am going with this - if…

The current version will work with all of those.

If it's not in "about Jira", then I'd guess you're on Cloud. Where you are on "latest" and have no reason to worry about the actual version because it doesn't affect what you're doing and you have no control over it.

Have you also re-indexed?

Same as you did in 2013, or even 2004 from memory.

Might want to explain your TLA here.

You can get rid of project pages - click on it and you'll find there's a check box you can deselect I *think* components will be hidden from some people if you have not added any (project and jira admins will always see the link, as it's the access to the list of components) You cannot get rid of "add item", it's part of…

Log in as an admin and go to Admin -> Issues -> Custom fields Find "release" in the list of fields and use the menu to the right to go to "contexts and default values". Inside the context you are using, you will see the current list of options. Edit <mount>, changing its name to <enact> That's it - you've renamed the…

Actually, it's not that hard to install apps on a non-internet-connected Jira. Assuming you are on a client machine that can see the Jira and the internet (your desktop or laptop for example), then you download the jar or obr file to that, then log into Jira, go to manage apps and click "upload", feeding it the file you…

That suggests that the current user does not have full read/write/execute/delete access to the files in the abc direcotory (possibly because of a lack of access to the directory itself) Check the permissions first. If you find they look ok, then the next test would be to try to edit the .gnupg file with another application…

Jira does not display the strikethrough in some places, usually when there are other indicators that the issue is resolved. If you're seeing a difference in a place that's showing issues and sub-tasks together, then the strikeout is missing because you're not setting a resolution on the sub-tasks.

You have to add the code into the code that generates the form.

You'll quickly learn to hate the SQL you're going to have to build, plus all the fun of explaining to people why the reports they're generating are wrong.

Code for it when you write the app.

I would always recommend looking for a reporting tool that does the work for you. If you're wedded to Powerbi (nothing wrong with that), then I'd use one of the tools that handles "understanding the database" for you - see https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?query=powerbi for the list (I can happily recommend the two…

I would question why you think you want to use SQL. It's the worst, most painful, most miserable way you can possibly ask a question of a Jira database, and people usually get it wrong very quickly. A simple human query like "show me the most simple issue you have" needs over 20 joins, and each field adds at least another…

In most cases, you don't need to re-index. Atlassian caches a lot in the index, but not the core of the security stuff. Space and Project permissions and restrictions are always read from the database, not the index. (Search and reporting less so though)
