Create Jira ticket html link in Confluence has wrong default priority

[Oli Anderson]

I have created an html link using a macro in Confluence to send people directly to a create task page in my Jira project but the priority for the tickets is set to Blocker whereas the default priority within the project is Medium. I would like to change it to Medium but I cannot see where in the html script this could be changed. Any help gratefully received.

Hi @Oli Anderson  Welcome to Atlassian Community!

You can set priority by adding priority and it's ID in HTML link, like this :- 

https://jira.xyz.com/secure/CreateIssueDetails!init.jspa?pid=31441&issuetype=1&priority=2

Change Priority Id as per your jira instance. Default priority doesn't work when creating issue without logging into JIRA. For logged in user, JIRA show default Priority.

Kindly check Atlassian Document for more information :- https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-create-issues-using-direct-html-links-in-jira-server-159474.html
