When I created new release version I can´t add it as fix version into the project. Why?

I created new release version under project settings/releases. I can see that there. But when I´d like to use it as fix version in project, I can´t use it. It is not visible in the list. Please, what can be wrong? What did I forget?

Hi Radek,

You cand check:

 

  • Project Association: Ensure that the release version is associated with the correct project. Sometimes, versions are created but not assigned to the project you’re working on.

    • Go to Project Settings > Versions (or Releases).
    • Verify that the new version appears in the list and is associated with the project you are working on.
  • Version Visibility: Check if the version is set to be visible. Versions can be marked as “Released,” “Archived,” or “Unreleased.” Unreleased versions should be visible for selection as a fix version.

    • In Project Settings > Versions, look at the status of your version. Make sure it's not archived.
  • Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to view and use versions in the project. Permissions can sometimes restrict visibility based on your user role.

    • Check the project's permission scheme to ensure you have the appropriate permissions to view and assign versions.
  • Browser Cache: Sometimes, the issue could be related to your browser cache. Try clearing your cache or accessing Jira in an incognito window to see if the version appears.

Hi, I'm having an issue that looks like yours : one of the release of a project can't be selected as fix version.
The release is associated with the project, marked "Unreleased" (not archived) and i have rights to change fix versions

One release is missing from the list of versions proposed by the field "Fix Versions" and that released is not archived.

Did you find how to fix your problem?

For any user facing the same problem, I was able to set the Fix Versions with the desired release by using a JIRA CLI Tool : https://github.com/ankitpokhrel/jira-cli

$ jira issue edit FOOBAR-1234 --fix-version "1.2.3"
