1 – Missing instance connection link

2 – Crosshatched card means that the issue does not exist anymore. It may have been deleted or it may not exist in this Jira instance.

You need to be connected to your cards’ instances to check them for updates.

Warning

Beware, when a user trigger the data sync with Jira, iObeya will synchronize Jira data based on the user’s default language set in Jira. Ensure you always sync Jira cards using the same default language in Jira to avoid notifications due to localization/translation changes. Thus we recommend to ensure that any users working in the same iObeya room are using the same default language in Jira.

Pushing updates in Jira

Note

This feature is only available for Jira tables.

To push updates in Jira from a Sprint table, you need the following permissions in Jira : Browse project and Schedule issues.

  1. Drag and drop a Jira card on a new cell.
