Why can't I edit my Jira Issues macro after insertion?

Karen West September 18, 2024

I am using the new Jira Issues macro, but as soon as I insert it after setting it up as I need to I can no longer edit it, i.e. the Edit pencil icon does not appear when I hover over the macro. 

Here's an image showing exactly what happens when using the Jira Legacy macro (1) vs the Jira Issues macro (2).

According to the documentation on the Jira Issues macro insert the jira issues macro/

(see "Edit your issues" below) you can do it, but it's not working for me. Is this a bug, or am I missing something?

Hi @Karen West and welcome,

try to edit page first and then update JQL on JIRA Issue macro within your page.

This should fix your issue.

Regards,

Fabio

Both screenshots were taken with the page in edit mode, and the option to edit is missing.
