I've worked in those environments too, and I can tell you that you need the people and processes to trust your admins. Your example of Lotus Domino is no better than what Confluence can do. If you're a Domino admin, you can always configure the system to allow yourself in. You have to trust your admins.

Again, the licence for Crowd is separate to Jira. They have nothing to do with each other. Neither system cares what the other one is licenced for.

Why are you (well, your client) giving admin access to people they can't trust?

Ok, a better solution for this problem is "educate the business that having different teams on different urls for a tool intended to work together with is divisive and won't work, and you should question why you think it is a useful thing to do"

Ok, nearly there, >would it then be better to disregard subtasks entirely, as they don't seem to have their place in a sprint, as you don't commit to doing them? I guess there's no point in having tasks in a sprint, you are not committing to do. No, that's not quite what I was trying to explain. Sub-tasks are not part of…

No matter what you do, you have no choice but to trust your admins. Even if you set up a separate Confluence, you'll still need to trust the administrators of that Confluence. This is not a problem anyone solves by crippling people's ability to do their job, you need to have procedures and human controls in place to ensure…

No. To do their job, an administrator needs to be able to, well, do admin. That includes the ability to change permissions in ways that could grant people (including the admin) the rights to see any page in the space.

>Our Confluence page is intentionally not accessible from the Internet. That is the problem. The migration tool (for some of the apps) needs to be able to read your Confluence from the outside.

Sub-tasks are not sprint items, they won't appear in the backlog or board as anything other than as a part of their parent issue (because that's all they are - a bit of a larger thing) There's an annoying oversight in Jira when it comes to selecting sub-tasks. In data terms, because a sub-task is part of its parent, they…

I don't think that would help you at all, I'm not your administrators, and I have less knowledge of your systems than you do (let alone access or admin) You need to talk to your administrators, maybe ask them for a call?

I don't think that would help you at all. You need to talk to your administrators, maybe ask them for a call?

There's a long story here, but to try to avoid an essay, we should look at estimates in two ways. There are issue-estimates and sprint-estimates in play here. The issue-estimates are doing what you expect - they're literally an estimate for the current issue (and there's a display of the sum of an issue estimate and all…

Crowd has a separate licence to Jira, so I'm not sure what you mean by "use with the current licence". You can run Jira and other Crowd-using applications with Server or DC Crowd, they don't care what the licence is for Crowd.

Again, have a think about the numbers. 5,000 employees, 58,000 open issues. Many open for a lot longer than 2 years and far more highly voted on. Now narrow it down to that one subject - bitbucket cloud only has a couple of product managers and a handful of developers, and there are 3,500 open issues with it (and that's…

Ok, the core of the problem is "Jira cannot connect to the database", but you've given us enough information to track that down to why - it can't actually open the database driver. java.io.FileNotFoundException: /opt/atlassian/confluence/confluence/WEB-INF/lib/atlassian-http-2.0.8.jar (Too many open files) is not 100%…

Hi, the software refers you here for general help with it, as the community is a well experienced and knowledgeable mass of people who can often help with problems with Atlassian software. But we can not help you with account problems - those need to be dealt with by your system adminstrators. ----- Hola, el software lo…

What would you like the "integration" to do?

> I just want to be able to view all the work in our department under one project Nested projects would not do that, even if Jira implemented them. Your "view of all our work" should be drawn from, well, the work, which means looking at the issues. One example would be "search for all issues assigned to people in our…

Anything your people feel might be useful for searching and reporting on. (Colour for example)

No, this will not work. As Dirk says, you could set up proxies or remappings, but the only site that will work properly is the one the base url is set to. Trying to use Jira on urls other than the real one will fail your users It won't break your data, but things like dashboards and reports will fail, users will eventually…

The project template used to create the project is not recorded by Jira (it's not useful after creation, it doesn't do anything)

No, you can't "rename the workflow in a project", because there isn't one. The workflow is not part of the project, it is a global item that the project is configured to use. You can rename a workflow, any way you would like to, and that change will be shown in the projects that use it. If you want to have a different name…

Ok, you were misinformed or you misunderstood what you were told. The community can try to do some level of support, but we're not the administrators of your systems. An analogy a friend gave me the other day - when was the last time you asked the people who built your house in 1925 where you keep the tea today?

You will need to ask your site administrators about this, not the community (we're not your admins and have less access to, and knowledge of, your systems than you do) If you don't know who they are, you'll need to ask - colleagues, the people who gave you your account, the people who asked you to use this system, or your…

Screens do not belong to project and issues, so there's no way to return that data from the apis. You will need to write code that gets the current configuration and works out what screens you want to update from that data plus the data about what you want to configure.

With Scriptrunner, all you need to do is add an "if" into your code - "if number is not 0/empty, then create one or more subtasks". Or if you're creating one per value, handle a zero as part of the loop ( "for each X, create a subtask" - when X is zero, there's no X to create for)

You don't need (or get) a SEN for Access. What are you trying to do that makes you think you need one?

It is not clear what you are trying to do here. The error message you are getting is probably accurate, but if you want us to explain it to you, you will need to tell us what you are doing and what the error message is. ("linked to another account" suggests you're getting one of three or four errors I can think of, but…

Don't read the documentation for an old version of Server Confluence and expect it to be valid for Confluence Cloud. But yes, you're right, this function is not available on the free subscription to Confluence Cloud

What are you using to do the scheduling? (I ask because Confluence does not do scheduling - you publish when you post it)
