Sub-task Saving in another column
Asked by Candice Merrill:

When I create a sub-task with a parent issue the sub-task saves in another column where unidentified issues would go.

Is there a way to have it stay with and follow the parent issue without auto saving in another column.

Basically, my sub-tasks are getting mixed up with my unidentified parent uses.

Can I get around this?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Sub-tasks do not have to be locked to the same status their parent is in (in fact, they'd be useless to most of us if they were)

Sub-tasks have their own workflow (which may or may not be the same as the parent issue of which they are a fragment), so they can be in different status, and hence column, to their parent.

Imagine a simple example:

* Parent is in-progress
* sub-task 1 has not been looked at, so it's "to do"
* sub-task 2 has been started on, so it's "in progress"
* sub-task 3 is complete, so it's "done"

That's 4 issues in three columns...

comments: author: Candice Merrill
body: That explains why each sub-task is place in a different column. Thank you for your comment..


author: Humashankar VJ
body: Hi - I hope that you are Doing good !!

It is for sure a unique case

sub-tasks should automatically inside the parent issue's, including its column or status. and in your use case it is called linked to different parent

If sub-tasks are not being correctly linked to their parent issues, it may indicate a configuration issue

Review the workflow configuration for your project  
Kindly share a snapshot of the issue and sub task if you wish

<br />

Happy to help further !!

Hope this helps

Thank you very much and have a fantastic day!  
Warm regards

comments: author: Candice Merrill
body: Yes, it is most likely set up that way for the project.

I am not the owner of the project so I will have to request that change from the project owner.

replace quotation marks in a table cell with table transformer
Asked by Alexandra K?hn:

Is there a way to replace quotation marks in a table cell using the sql-query of the table transformer macro or split the cell by quotation marks that are part of the string in the cell?


Answers:
author: Stiltsoft support
body: Hi [@Alexandra K?hn](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5436195) ,

Can you give us an example of your strings for further elaboration?

And how exactly you want them to look after the transformation?

Then we'll be able to think about possible workarounds for the case.

comments: author: Stiltsoft support
body: Hi [@Alexandra K?hn](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5436195) ,

I've consulted with our developers: the CHAR(34) character is standing for the quotation mark ", so you may refer to it in your queries.

For example, the standard SPLIT function will look as following:

SELECT T1.'Text'-\>split(CHAR(34))-\>0 AS 'Text part 1',  
T1.'Text'-\>split(CHAR(34))-\>1 AS 'Text part 2'  
FROM T\*

JQL how to filter Jira issues that have link to the current Confluence page?
Asked by Andrii Duma:

Hello dear community,  

the problem is I need to add the list of Jira issues to the specific Confluence page, filtered by the presence of the link to this page and I couldn't do that using JQL.

I'm shocked and I don't understand why such trivial and seemingly basic function is absent in JQL? Many people and organizations put the links of Confluence pages into Issues' description. And the ability to see which issues are referring to certain Confluence page looks natural. Is it technically hard to implement such feature or there are some another reasons?  

In general, cross-referring between Jira and Confluence must be presented out of the box, IMO. Just similarly like the commits in CVS are shown in Jira. The same regarding links. Every page, I think, must have a section "Mentioned on..." which contain a list of links of another pages of Atlassian Cloud that refer this page.  

Thank you for answers.

How can I delete log from item if item is deleted?
Asked by S:

I was wondering how can I delete all the data stored in a form log once the item gets deleted from the form?  

I have a table where I can input a part number, its description, quantity, location, etc. Then I created a form log that keeps track of every change done on that part number. If I change the qty or the location then the log will keep track of those changes using IFTTT Audit, similarly if a new part gets created. Like, it tracks every change on the table and displays it on another table. Now, my issue is that if you delete the part number from the 1st table, the form log does not disappear at all for that part. Is there a way to make sure that the log erases the data of the part, if the part no longer exists on the form?  

\*sorry the tables are a bit messy, I'm trying to test a lot of different features.  

<br />

Cannot change form's height with custom layout
Asked by Ryan Kafoor:

Hello,

I am trying to change the height of my form by using the form height option in the registration control. However this does not seem to have any effect on the form. That is not the case while changing the width of the form as it works just fine. Is there something wrong that I am doing here? I have a custom form layout if that is relevant here, which I do not think it is. Thanks

ConfiForms will not allow you to have a height that is larger than 75% of your maximum screens height (so, forms look complete and have title and buttons visible)

Using line break in "textfield" in a confiform leads to error trying to create a jira ticket
Asked by Can Kilic:

In my Confiform i used the "text" field which I mapped to the "description" in a jira Ticket. Because I wanted to see the hole text I changed the "text" field to "textfield" field. Here a user can also use a line break and doesnt have to enter the text on just 1 line. When a user uses this line break he gets an error message:

Could not prepare JSON: ............. Invalid format. Expected a ',' or '}' at 157 \[character 37 line 9\]

How can I still use the "textfield" without getting an error message.

Is there a report in Confluence for Jira issues that were created from within Confluence
Asked by Florian Juen:

Hi there,

for recurring meetings, we use Confluence to take notes and create action items and Jira issues directly in Confluence. We use a task report to check the action items in the next meeting.

Is there also a way/a report to show ++only++ the Jira issues that were created in Confluence or that specific meeting series?


Answers:
author: Andrii Maliuta
body: Hello [@Florian Juen](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4191236) ,

Maybe some metadata is stored when creating the ticket from Confluence in such a way and you can try to check this in Jira logs or DB to see if you can differentiate this.

You can leave the option in Daily Digest, but would have to select the "Someone mentions me" option in the real-time updates section.

If you need to get any inline comments on real-time, you need to watch the space/page.

How might I keep a Confluence Cloud and Confluence Data Centre instance automatically in synch ?
Asked by jim.hunt:

Hi,

Is there a way I can keep a Confluence *Cloud* instance automatically synched with an on-premise Confluence datacentre instance ? The Cloud instance is the Master where the authors create the content. The *consumers* of the content have an on-premise instance of Confluence which we need to keep synchronised with the Cloud-master. (the option of the Consumers having access to the Cloud instance is not possible / acceptable to the business).

An idea I've been considering is using a database replication tool to replicate the Cloud Master to the On-premise instance; is this possible ? I'm trying to eliminate manual processes wherever possible.

Are there alternative options / tools that I might use to achieve the same result ?

Many thanks !


Answers:
author: Emily _ DevSamurai
body: Hi [@jim.hunt](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5435957)

Automatically synchronizing content from Confluence Cloud to Confluence Data Center involves complexities that go beyond simple database replication. The direct approach you mentioned, using a database replication tool, is not recommended due to the significant differences in the architecture and data handling between Confluence Cloud and Data Center. You can consider explore third-party tools or [Atlassian Marketplace apps](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/) that might offer synchronization capabilities.

I hope this will help.

Put Banner On a Specific Project
Asked by Spruha Shah:

We have migrated several projects in our instance and changed the permission to read only for only those projects. We want to just let those projects know that these are migrated by putting a banner or header on that specific project only and NOT on the entire instance. How can we do that in cloud?


Answers:
author: Hans Polder
body: [@Spruha Shah](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5110455) ,

As far as I know, this is not natively possible in Jira (Cloud). Maybe there is a plugin for that?

A work-around solution that comes to mind is to do the following:

1. Update the Permission Scheme to allow creating tickets in these projects (leave all other permissions on read-only)
2. Update the Create Screen with a Message Custom Field (tip: use **{panel} \<text here\> {panel}** to make this pretty). Remove all other fields from the create screen and make one field mandatory (but not shown).

People should then not be able to create actual tickets, but still get an explanation about the situation, without being able to create new issues. I would suggest actually removing most of the fields, to avoid people filling in 20 fields and then getting stuck later :)

API delete managed account

Hi,

I'm trying to implement personal data removal for not active user (for GDPR purpose).

After domain user removal, user is not accessible in Jira, but on "Managed Account" there are his/her personal data. When you delete it from this page then it is cleared.  

I was trying to use:

DEL /rest/api/2/user  
but it does not bring any effect.  
Could you help me how to achieve it?  

Another option for me is anonymization, but I do not see any endpoint in Api documentation which could do it for me.

author: John Fetzik

First, it looks like you are doing a GET, but for the delete endpoint you need to use a POST.

Second, use the get profile endpoint to make sure the user id exists, and you have permission to see it.

Third, you could have a formatting problem with your HTTP request. You would need to include the "code" you are using to make the request.
