Database values plugin compatibility

[Dídac R]

Good Morning,

We're planning a migration from a JIRA version 6 to a version 8.13. We see that the plugin "Database Values ​​for Jira" is not available for this major version and we do not see any way to contact the manufacturer. Please, we need to know when there will be a release compatible with version 8.13 in order to correctly plan the migration.

We remain attentive to your comments.

Thanks and best regards.

On his documentation page he mentiones:

Frequently Asked Questions

Things are not working, where do I get help?

If you have problems getting the plugin to work, please post a question on on Atlassian Answers (tag your question with jira and jdvp). Please do not email me directly (unless you need custom implementations/additions to this plugin). You are far more likely to get useful feedback there.

so I added those tags here. Let's see if he replies.

As it is a free plugin the support of course depends on the willingness of a developer most likely in his spare time.

If you need an alternative, you can look towards scriptrunner which also has a way of pulling data from a database and showing it in a field.

The developer tracks requests also here:
https://bitbucket.org/wimdeblauwe/jdvp/issues?status=new&status=open

After a new Jira version came out normally somebody requests this new version to be compatible with jdvp on the page over there.
At least, this is how it worked the last 1-2 years (based on own experience).

Cheers,
Daniel
