Where to Upload "Addon" For Jira?

keevo_tan February 6, 2020

I just signed up for a free trial of this Jira "addon" called "Global CSS and JS for Jira".

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1219330/global-css-and-js-for-jira?hosting=server&tab=overview

After signing up for it, it sends me to a "success" page that gives me these instructions:

http://prntscr.com/qyscgi

The instructions say I need to do these steps:

"Navigate to the administration section.
Choose "Add-Ons", then navigate to "Manage Add-Ons".
Click the "Upload Add-On" link and upload this file."

However, I cannot seem to locate this page they are talking about? Where would it be in the current version to "upload" this addon's files into my Jira account?

I'm using Jira cloud so I'm not sure why this plugin is wanting me to download it and upload it anyways.

Hi @keevo_tan 

The Global CSS and JS for Jira addon you are referring to is for Jira Server version, and it's not available for Jira Cloud.

Thanks for the explanation. Do you know of any recommended way for Jira cloud to be able to add CSS to customize UI of issues tables, etc.?

Did you install the app from the Find new apps section on Jira Cloud?

If this is the case you don't need to upload anything, just copy the licence, navigate to your system settings -> Apps -> Manage Apps -> and there you should find the app you downloaded and paste in the licence.  

 

To be able to upload apps on cloud you would need to activate the development mode

Alexander Schmidt- thanks for the help. The other person below(Veera Visanakarrala) just said that the addon is for "Jira Server" and not "Jira Cloud". 

But you are saying that it's still possible to put this "Addon" on my Jira Cloud setup if I just activate a special "Development Mode"?

The addon is https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1219330/global-css-and-js-for-jira?hosting=server&tab=overview
