This article is a continuation of Why flagging an issue is so cool? Now, we are going to build a solution to emulate the functionality of adding a flag along with a comment from the issue detail view. For doing so, we are going to use just Jira Software Cloud native features. Please, note this solution is just a workaround…

Have you ever needed a button in an issue just to do stuff without modifying the issue status? And what about applying edit permissions on the field level? This article shows how to set workflows for covering both needs in a cost-effective way. Natively, Jira workflows count with a really powerful feature which is just a…

Adding a flag to an issue is a cool way to say it is blocked. Also, you can add a comment as part of the same action from a board. But what if you want to do the same from the issue detail view? This article will guide you through the usage of flags and will provide a native solution to emulate the feature of adding a flag…

Hi there! We need to incorporate an experienced Atlassian Cloud Administrator at Vorwerk. Join the company which produces the Thermomix and the Kobold vacuum cleaner; the same care we put in our products, we put in our people! :) The job position is in Madrid (Spain) at our IT Center (requires relocation). Due to time…

On JIRA Cloud, users with Administer Projects permission couldn't add groups to a Project Role, nor remove groups from them. How can I mimic the same restriction on a JIRA Server 7.1.9 instance?

Since eazyBI doesn't store Description, Comments nor Attachments, how can I add the Description field to an eazyBI report? There are some examples about how to extract comments with code and JMWE, but I've found no ways to get the Description. Any ideas?

This article has been created in close collaboration with @Paula Kraszewska whom I cannot avoid mentioning here for her very valuable contribution. Thank you! Hi Atlassian Community! Along this article, we are going to share with you many aspects around the management of user access to Jira projects and Confluence spaces…

I love how Jira and Confluence are being integrated more and more over time. It is so cool to have a Pages section in all Jira projects to show the content of their linked spaces! But how could that integration be even better than that? This article explores a way to do so. Some thoughts Confluence spaces linked to Jira…

We are looking for a Jira Admin to join our Development Center in Madrid. Reporting to the Team Lead, you will be expected to be able to analyse business requirements and propose a solution on how to cover it with Jira, prioritizing the reuse of existing configuration elements over creating new ones. What will you do? *…

Hi all! You've probably heard a lot of famous quotes: smart, hilarious, inspiring ones... Maybe some of them kind-of related to an Atlassian product? I really love those pieces of wisdom concentrated in just a few words! I'll start with a Confluence/documentation one: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand…

This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: Using the Simplified Workflow The Simplified Workflow is amazing for letting normal users create their own workflows, with the status names they need. However, I'd like to set a (non-existing) option to disable the creation of new statuses by users that are not JIRA…

Can a Confluence Cloud page be synchronized with Bamboo Cloud deployments info? Currently, we are updating the 'Deployed on' column manually, and would like it to be automatically updated: deploy.png Any ideas?

I would like to be able to automatically generate a PDF based on a template, with information from issues matching several JQLs as well as some charts and contents from some gadgets. An ideal solution would allow to build reports much like iReport can do against a queryable database. Are there any solutions to achive this…

The docs on Managing multiple directories describe this sample scenario: * You have connected two directories: A read/write LDAP directory and the internal directory. * The LDAP directory is first in the directory order. * All new users will be added to the LDAP directory. It is not possible to add a new user to the…

Have already tried: summary ~ currentUser() OR description ~ currentUser() OR comment ~ currentUser() OR text ~ currentUser() but returns just the issues where the username has been included the comments' content, and thus, it doesn't return issues where currentUser is just the author of the comment.

This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: Customize Exports to PDF We have checked that this CSS works on exporting a space to PDF as described in the docs: .pagetitle { page-break-before: always; } But, how can we add more page breaks like this one, but relative to content of the page? (ie: headers,…

Can users with Service Desk Customers project role receive notifications of all status changes for non-public projects? These are the only notifications customers receive when SD notifications are ON: SD_notifications.jpg If SD notifications are OFF, I understand customers will receive notifications as per the project's…

How can I get the sum of work logged during a specific month of each issue from a project? I've been researching, but have found no solutions for JIRA Cloud. The JQL queries, gadgets and built-in Reports that I've tried have not resolved this. Any ideas?

Is there a straight-forward way of obtaining all issues somehow related to a specified user? As a workaround, I've come up with this long and incomplete JQL: assignee was currentUser() OR worklogAuthor = currentUser() OR reporter was currentUser() OR watcher = currentUser() OR voter = currentUser() OR assignee changed by…

Quotation from this page: If the Notifications setting for JIRA Service Desk is disabled, the JIRA notification scheme works as defined for all events and users (including customers). Here I understand that customers would be notified according to the appropriate project's Notification Scheme. Quotation from another page:…
