My Jira project will change, what are the impacts on iObeya?
It is possible that a Jira project will change its name, its key or its workflow. If it is used in iObeya, what are the impacts and how to manage them?
Warning: To avoid any problems, we recommend testing beforehand on a test project
1°) Change of key
Impact : The jira cards are considered archived and therefore no longer linked to the project.
Actions to be taken:
- Reconfigure the Jira tool set in the docks
- Do a mass import to recreate the cards.
- Delete the cards with the old key

2°) Change of workflow
- Special case of the Kanban board :
Impact : The board being based on the workflow states, we do not benefit from the changes on the iObeya side (more or less states, name changes, etc)
Action to be taken : The board must be recreated in order to use the new workflow
Related documentation : Create a Kanban board
- Other cases : For any other case, you just need to update the jira cards.

3°) Change of name
If there is only a name change, the only impact will be in the name of the board, once entered in (top left).
Unfortunately, to correct this, the only possibility is to recreate the board.
