Linking to Jira Issues

Linking to Jira Issues

On this page:


Since we're working inside of Jira, being able to link a page to an issue is a must have.

Mentioning Jira Issues in a Page

In our case, you can mention an issue in a page, and the editor automatically resolves it to show details about the issue.

If you know which issue to mention, simply enter the issue key, and the issue is resolved.

Issue Type-ahead

If you don't know the key of the issue, the editor has a convenient type-ahead search for issues. Simply type an opening square bracket [ and you can search for issues to mention inline.

using issue typeahead

 

User Display Permissions

Any issue mentioned, that the current user doesn't have access to, is shown as a simple link with the issue key only, so no details about the issue are revealed.

 

note:
At this time, it is not possible to customize which fields are shown in the issue mention. As such, Issues always show the type, the summary, and the current status.
