Confluence is a wiki, not a video conferecing system (with recording). But if you get the right apps that add those functions (and I have seen them), yes, it is possible to add that.

We cannot tell you - we are a community of end-users of Atlassian software, not your admins. We can tell you that issues will not dissappear unless deleted, archived or hidden by security levels, there is nothing in Jira that does this "automatically", but all of that needs to be set-up or done by a human. You really do…

Hey! I only report stuff to mods if I want a second opinion, or it's one of your posts! ;-) I also disagree with points 3 and 4. Because of the way I think and work, not because they are "wrong" - they're not, for a lot of us. 4 is not right for me because my brain doesn't do articles by listings (so I don't use Trello for…

a?

Do not mix up "filter results" with "what I want to display". If you tried to do this based on a filter, it will fail for your humans. Imagine a simple case. We issues logging what pets people live with, and we have three current labels: cat, dog and other-pet. Now imagine we have several households: * Nic lives with two…

The only way to retain the create date/time is to import via CSV or project import. I would strongly recommend that you use one of the marketplace apps to do this work, rather than re-invent the wheel - the list of things you have named to transfer is WAY too short and missing loads of things you need to think about.

You'll need to talk to your email admins about where the mail is being blocked (after checking your spam filters are not dropping it into a spam folder)

Log into the server and test the routing back to itself. If, for example, your Jira base url is "https://dave/jira", then try simply "curl https://dave/jira". I expect you will get an error or a block of text that is an error message, either of which will tell you what is wrong (can't resolve the name, doesn't respond,…

I've seen it when I've been using over-zealous ad or content blockers in the browser. Needed to configure them to allow Cloud servers to serve content.

You don't. You wouldn't want to either - attaching the same file over and over is a complete waste of resources and your people will quickly learn to ignore it.

No. The system fields content are scattered across several database tables, and their "details" are done in code, not data.

For the default workflow it is, but some people change that.

It can be, if your server is of a decent spec, Jira is well configured and your networking fast between the server and client. Cloud is usually slow because of network latency - Jira puts quite a lot out over the network, so if you have a slow one (even a fast network that is a long way away from the computers actually…

No, Jira does not store information on "logged in sessions", the data about the session is held on the client side. Also, who cares? What is the benefit of logging people out on a machine they are not currently using?

That's a process question we can't answer. I would ask your project owners what your process is around failed builds.

You will need to sign up for the account, or contact the admins of your "LHT Jira". We're a community of end-users of Atlassian stuff (such as Jira), and have less access or knowledge of your Jira than you do.

You'll need to fix that in your google sheet. It is not a Jira problem from what you've said here.

That suggests that your board that the sprint belongs to does not have the current status of the issues mapped into a column. Issues from previous sprints will carry over into new sprints when the issue is not "done" - Jira defines that as "not in the last column of the board, or having incomplete sub-tasks"

No. One of the reasons Jira was written was that "assign to group" is a terrible thing to do and does not work in real life. See https://confluence.atlassian.com/jira/how-do-i-assign-issues-to-multiple-users-207489749.html for ways to say "this group also have responsibility", but never neglect the assignee - you will…

No, because you mostly never want to automate things this way. There are some helper functions in Tempo, but they're gradually going away because people don't want to work this way.

You should go from 6.3 to 6.4 to 7.0 to 7.13 to 8.5 You might be able to skip the 6.3 to 6.4 depending on your config. But do NOT skip the 6.x to 7.0 step - skipping that is known to cause problems and should NEVER be skipped.

If it is saying the database is not properly configured, it is usually telling you what you have missed in the set up. Why have you not configured it as specified? If you are not being told what is wrong, can you tell us what you are seeing?

Nothing specific. A "simple" Server -> DC is (technically) a doddle. It's the plugins and integrations that can break it, the Atlassian docs pretty much do "upgrade" and won't cause you problems now.

See the conversation above.

To solve the "problem", automation, definitely. But humans really do not work that way. Some of the people in my organisation have "simplified" timesheets. Frankly, none of us care that our admin team all log 8 hours a day to "admin". That's what they do. We don't care whether they are ordering supplies, shouting at our…

Your Jira server is somehow not able to talk to itself over your network. It can't resolve its own server name, or has been firewalled off from itself. Try a "trace route" from the Jira server back to itself. This will usually tell you why it can't see itself.

I don't think you will see this coming back - story points are not hours. They're not any simple multiplier of hours. I've seen 1SP take two days and 8SPs take 30 minutes. Their relative complexities were right, the length of time to close them was very very different.

Partly, but I am not sure how much. I work for an Atlassian partner, and we do a lot of upgrades. For Confluence upgrades, we quote at "hours" if the source version is Confluence 4 or above and the target is "latest". Obviously, plugins/add-ons/apps, integrations and automations can add a LOT of time to that. So, we would…

This is a set of questions you only get if you have chosen to install a Confluence Data-Centre node. If you want to install plain Confluence Server, without nodes, then do not use a Data Centre install to do it, use Server
