If you set the field configuration so that sub-tasks do not have the version field(s), then they will vanish when you convert an issue to a sub-task

Your code should talk to the REST API 

What does the log file say the reason for not starting is?

I usually use the "short" link - you can find it in the page information tab. It is based on the page id, which does not vary either, but is quite long.

* Screens are an ordered list of fields (to show to a person). Screen schemes say "use these screens for create, edit and view". Issue type screen schemes tell a project what screen scheme to use for each issue type * They are not related to field configurations. (Except by being used by the same project) * You have to…

The description of a field is not part of the Jira index, and is trivial when looking at performance, it's just served up as part of any view of an issue. I think you need to look elsewhere if you are having performance problems.

Could you explain what you are looking for? There are hundreds of thousands of Confluence sites, it has moved a long way past "site for X, run by Y", anything thrown into a search engine will find a lot of them based just on "site for X". Your question looks like "show me some Confluence sites", the answer is "search for…

Use roles for speed, flexibility, delegating rights to your users, and making life easier for all of us. Use groups if you're stuck in a corporate scheme that thinks groups are useful or have an over-arching demand to control your people. It can be slightly slower, but there's not a lot in it technically. (In the real…

The account you are using to issue the "delete" command does not have the permission to delete issues in that project. An administrator will need to log in and amend the permissions to allow them to do the deletion.

You will need to read every permission scheme, and all the global permission schemes.

I think we need to understand if you mean "The system field called Description" or "The descriptions of fields" (If it is the second, then indexing is not a problem, we need to look at something else)

@Earl McCutcheon Thank you. That's a great explanation that I will be pointing people to a lot.

This is a question that needs more context. Without knowing what you are thinking of changing, and a lot of detail on the Jira system you are going to change, we cannot tell you more than "everything". You might need to update people, fields, screens, schemes, workflows, and, and, and. If you want this question answered,…

This means that Confluence believes that it is a new installation, but has been pointed to a database that already contains a load of Confluence data. It is hard to say what the underlying problem here is without doing a lot of delving, but there is a slightly-hacky fix. Create a new database (maybe with the same…

Are they preserving the issue ID in the subject of the emails they reply to?

You do not have multiple assignees. Jira has a single assignee, as multiple ones do not work in real life. The assignee is the one single person who should be responsible for the issue in its current state. You can include other people as "interested" or "the backup responsible person" etc. Use the watchers field possibly,…

There is a full issue history on all Jira issues (unless you choose to delete them) I personally tend to write a story in Jira and then go to Confluence if it turns out it needs writing up in a longer form for some reason. I'd agree with your points about Jira being an issue tracker and handling process, and developers…

You could have a story for each, or you could sub-task for each component you want to use. You'd need something like Automation or Scriptrunner to copy stories with more than one component, or create the sub-tasks.

The short answer to >How can I make a Story visible in multiple Swimlanes, where by creation I checked multiple components? Is that "you cannot". You are not missing anything, everything you have found is correct. The longer answer does not change that, just tries to explain it a bit. Swimlanes cut across a board,…

That is not unexpected - there are "greenhopper" errors in the log. And to be fair, you did say "board" in the question, but the "it runs ok as a filter" is helpful to know. So, I've set up a board too, with some data using the same filter, and I get no problem with it. That strongly pushes me to question the apps you've…

I have already answered that question. Repeating it does not add anything more I can tell you.

Repeating a question I have already answered is of no use.

This happens if you have recently taken a backup. The process is quite intensive, so Atlassian only allow it to run once every two days. Someone mentioned 47.5 hours to me a while ago, but that is third-hand, so assume the official line at https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiracloud/exporting-issues-776636787.html

I would want to read more of the logs, right the way to the end of the chain of "caused by", but it looks to me like you have an app that may be blocking access to one or both of the fields you are trying to runt he query on. If possible, as a temporary test, try disabling the quisapps field security app, try the filter…

Jira does not have conditional filters like that. If you think about it, this particular case sort of breaks what a filter is for - you usually want to ask one question "show me data that matches", not several. If you want these two, your only option in Jira is two separate filters.

You will need something like ScriptRunner Behaviours that can show or hide fields dependent on rules. If you are going to do that, you need to be aware that it is not for security, as the data is still present in the html that goes to the end-user's browser so they can see it, and it won't affect the data or usage of any…

>do I understand correctly that there is no way to add 2 identical JSD licenses? So I set up a second server. Correct, you can only use one licence on one server. You have two 25 user licences. You'll need a licence for 50 if you want to use one server. You can increase on of the 25s, rather than do a complete replacement.…

Two of them do not have an "order", they don't have a timing cycle * Properties are not actions, they're data that sits in the workflow (and other places) providing extra data, which is read by other things. * Triggers are not quite actions either. They are dedicated hooks that allow actions (generally external to Jira,…

Yes, you can write the master page so that it uses the macro "include" - wherever {include:(space:) name of other page} is used, the entire content of the other page is drawn within the master. The master contains no content from the included page when it is edited, if you want to change the text, you have to edit the…

You'll need to choose which server you are going to keep on 50 users, then add the people from the other server, and then move any projects over that you want to keep. See https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/migrating-projects-to-another-jira-instance-938847925.html
