How can I get the permalink to a comment in the new 2018 Issue View?

Nikhil Kundra

I'm pleased by the new Issue view, but how can I link to a specific comment now for clear communication (without switching back to the old view)? Is this a regression in the 2018 update? Or how do I obtain the permalink?

Hi Nikhil,

I'm not entirely sure but it sure looks like that feature has not been added yet. As you may or may not know the new Issue View is still work in progress. You can keep track on the changes by watching the following page: https://confluence.atlassian.com/jiracorecloud/the-new-jira-issue-view-938040503.html

Best,

Maarten

Actually answered it myself. The way I found to do it (not necessarily the most intutive) is to switch back to the ‘Old’ issue view and grab it from there.

Eugene Dementiev

I don't think this really qualifies, as surely the old interface will be phased out eventually. We have to let them know we need the feature..

This is no feature, this is essential operation. I'm supposed to tell my colleague "hey check this ticket, 37 comments down from the top, assuming you're sorting from oldest first"? I think not.

Sooooooo much stuff missing from the new UI. Wish they hadn't made it the default before it was actually done.

Atlassian team, that is a shame! I will use Facebook if I need likes. At the same time one of the most useful features is still in progress on your end. And now I need to switch to an old interface to use permalinks.

What a shame... 0 out of 10 for your redesign

Vladimir Galajda

There is an open issue for this feature

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-70156

I would suggest everybody who is missing this feature should vote for it.

Ankit Verma_21qky3

Voted for this feature as this helps in pointing some specific comments in the comment thread inside Jira. I believe, Atlassian will soon look into this and make it available in the new interface as well.

Ticket has been open since Sept 2018. Could you make it higher priority please

Come on JIRA team. Why don't you atleast respond to your customers.

This should have been built by now

Hristo Proynov_dnqo9j

Atlassian, please, add the links to the comments. Everyone use them.

Thank you.

Piotr Dżaluk

And please stop breaking working and used features.

We all need to keep posting to get the comment permalink back

Jira - You can not take away such important work flows, like link to a comment. In the real world, people need to target a specific comment and not the full ticket. As people in this thread are saying... "Come on Jira, this is a PRIMARY piece of project management, and you took away this permalink comment, which absolutely is counter-productive". I would suggest you have your UX team put back this MUST-HAVE component.
