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?

[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]

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.

[Liudmyla Chura]

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

[Kanuj Bhatnagar]

It is very shocking that this is being taken as an enhancement. Even wordpress has permalinks for the comments :\

[Jaspaul_Aggarwal]

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

[Maarten Cautreels]

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

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

[Nikhil Kundra]

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..

[David Dombrowsky]

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.

This seems like a workaround and nuisance to do on a daily basis. 

On my JIRA I don't even have an option for old view

[Joydeep Sen Sarma]

+500 :-). totally silly to not have this option and makes new ui unusable.

[Nikhil Kundra]

Yeah you all are right :)

Jira, can you please prioritize fixing this issue? 🙏🏽

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.

Please answer everyone - When will a permalink to comment be in live production?

[Michael Leipold-Haas]

Removal of permalink function for comments makes me sad.

[ken.w.colvin]

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

There are many removed functionalities.

For example - I cannot edit a logged work time.

Please, set them all back!

[Piotr Dżaluk]

And please stop breaking working and used features.

[Hristo Proynov]

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

Thank you.
