Software capitalization from Jira worklogs: a month-end close calendar your auditor can follow
"Show me how this capitalized number ties back to the hours." That request from an auditor is where many software capitalization processes built on Jira run into trouble. The hours are in Jira worklogs. The classification often lives in a spreadsheet someone updated by hand on the last day of the month. I'm Marcin, founder…

700 fields per space in Jira Cloud: count, compare, forecast
Since March 2026, Jira Cloud enforces a limit of 700 fields per space. When a space reaches it, an admin cannot associate another field with that space until usage comes down. Most admins I talk to know the number. Far fewer know which of their spaces is closest to it. I'm Marcin, founder of Radrly. We build LimitRadar, a…

API keys and passwords pasted into Jira: how to find them, and what to do first
A developer debugging a webhook late at night pastes the whole curl command into a comment, header and all. The comment carries a live API key. Nobody notices, because the ticket gets resolved the next morning and nobody reads resolved tickets. I'm Marcin, founder of Radrly. We build LeakRadar, a secret and personal data…

A 20-minute weekly Jira configuration review
Every Monday, a Jira admin team could spend an hour in the audit log, or none at all. Most weeks it spends none, until a workflow change surprises a team. What works better is a short review with the same questions every week, done in the same order. I'm Marcin, founder of Radrly. We make ConfigRadar, a configuration…

Deactivated in Atlassian Administration, still in your Jira groups: an offboarding check
A colleague left in September. IT deactivated the account the same afternoon, so the login stopped working. In December an auditor reads your Jira permission data and finds that name in the Administrators role of four spaces. Nobody could have used that access, yet it is a finding, and you have to explain it. I'm Marcin,…

How much has this Jira space cost so far? Tracking budget burn and margin from worklogs
A client project runs in the WEB space with a budget of 48,000 USD and an end date of 31 October. It's mid-October. Finance asks two questions: how much have we spent, and will the money last? Jira holds half the answer, because the hours are already there as worklogs. This article shows the native month-end routine that…

The Jira audit log says "updated". Here's how to see what actually changed.
Monday, 9:10. A team lead writes: "Our contractors can't see the PAY board since Friday." You open the Jira audit log and find one entry from Friday afternoon: Permission scheme updated. Which grant changed? What did it say before? The entry doesn't tell you. I'm Marcin, founder of Radrly, which builds ConfigRadar, a…

Who can access this Jira space, and why? Resolving groups, roles and permission schemes
The question usually arrives from an auditor or a security lead: "Who can see the PAY space, and why?" In Jira the answer is spread across permission schemes, space roles, groups and application access. Below are the four questions an access review has to answer, how to answer each one natively, and where that gets slow.…
