Will this cloud banner allow the execution of custom code like the data centre version does, to hide certain elements of the UI such as:

<script>
// Uncheck bulk edit notification
window.onload = function () {
var box = document.getElementById("sendBulkNotificationCB");
if(box)

{ box.checked = false; }
}
</script>

<style type="text/css">

#ghx-chart-viewing-options {
display: none !important;}

#announcement-banner {
display: none !important;}

</style>

In the posts above the backlog containing ideas for improvments for the announcment banner was mentioined several times.

Took me some time to find the corresponding tickets. However, here there are:

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-77723

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-43228

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-34144

I voted on all 3 of them since those would extend the usecases of the banner - and would be happy if others do the same.

Hi @Omar Rashid

Thank you @Christian Voigt !

Having just made the jump from Jira Server to Cloud, this implementation is a regression. Hopefully it can be brought back up to previous standards soon.

@Yerbol Nisanbayev Hi! Can you shed some light on your plans to open this feature up to developers of Marketplace vendors? Or in other words: when can I build an app that works with the announcement banner?

Hey @James Newland  thank you for your feedback, can you please let us know what makes you feel like this is a regression? 

Hi @Jari Sanders , we don't have short term plans to open the banner to app developers, but we want to make this and more features more available to our app developers in the future.

@Yerbol Nisanbayev - instead of opening up the banner itself to app developers, can you open up that location in the UI, so apps can roll their own content?

Confluence Cloud has such a location already, allowing apps to do their own banner if they wanted to.  Jira Cloud is lagging behind.

Hey @Devin Kramer , all Jira Cloud instances should have this functionality by now. If you still don't, that is unusual, can you please try raising a ticket with our support.

@Yerbol Nisanbayev  - you said something similar in Oct last year (in this very thread), and others at Atlassian have told me the same for the past 4 years :)

Hi @Anthony De Moss , I am afraid we constantly battle with competing priorities that we have to sift through and pick the ones that would have the biggest impact on our customers. To be transparent, we are not looking to do any further work on the announcement banner in the near future.

Hi,

Is it possible in jira to set the announcement banner only for one particular project.

Thanks,

Swathi.

Hi @Swathi M H (UK) , thank you for your question. Not at this time, right now it's instance wide.

ZC September 12, 2022

it's definitely good to have.

it would be great if we can schedule it for a period in advance (setting the start and end date/time)

I would love to be able to use the statuspage embed into the announcement banner as well.

This is amazing!! although if we can schedule it for certain duration, and then auto hide that will be a great thing. And also if we can make it visible to specific user group or project roles, that will be a cherry on cake

I'm not able to see the "Announcement Banner" link.  What version of the JIRA Cloud is this available on?

Hey @Gary Ropers there is only one version of Jira cloud that is in production, you should be able to see it in Jira admin settings, given that you have admin access to your instance.
