March 14, 2025
New Features
Remove ART Feature swimlanes from Team Planning Boards: You can easily remove unnecessary empty swimlanes from the board by hovering over the swimlane and clicking the ‘X’ button next to the issue summary. This will remove the respective Team from the ‘Assigned Teams’ field and also clear the currently displayed PI from the ‘Assigned PIs’ field, if the issue was only assigned to your Team. To add a swimlane back, simply drag it from the ‘Unplanned Issues’ sidebar into the board area.
‘Improved Planning’ generally available: The ‘Improved Planning’ mode is now fully available and has moved out of the
phase. This means that all changes introduced at https://agilehive.atlassian.net/wiki/Status colour Purple title beta

New Features
‘PI Involvement’ Custom Field for ART-level issues: The Agile Hive Custom Field ‘PI Involvement’ has been extended to include ART-level issues, in addition to its existing availability for Team-level issues. This update assists the Product Management of an ART by providing visibility into when Teams are working on a Feature and which PIs have Stories planned for ART-level issues. Moreover, the ‘PI Involvement’ field for ART-level issues integrates the ART Roadmap plan, offering a consolidated view of both the roadmap plan and the actual PI planning of the involved Teams.
Adding this functionality required adding new capabilities to the app’s scope resulting in this version being considered a major release (13.0.0) by Atlassian. Please refer to Upgrading and Versioning for more information on versioning of Cloud apps.
Improvements
Display all Team-level child issues at once for an ART issue in SAFe® Hierarchy panel: In the 'SAFe® Hierarchy' panel of the Jira Issue View, when examining the Agile Hive Issue Hierarchy of issues on the ART level, we now show all Team-level child issues. This enhancement allows for better tracking of all Teams involved in an ART issue and provides a more detailed view of the status of work to be delivered by these Teams.
Bugfixes
PI dates off by two days when creating new PIs: Fixed a bug where users with a large UTC offset experienced newly created PI dates being incorrect by up to two days after creation.
Roadmap not properly displaying planned PIs: Fixed a bug where the Roadmap Board failed to show all PI indicators when there were two or more PIs in a planned state.
May 31, 2024

With this version, two new Custom Fields have been added that provide additional functionality for ART-level issues ('Teams Involved' & ‘Owning Team’). It is recommended that a Jira Administrator reviews the Agile Hive components in Jira’s app administration and recreates any missing statuses, workflows, screens, issue link types, Custom Fields, and other schemes. Also, the Custom Fields should be reviewed and added manually to the respective Screens to make sure all Agile Hive functionality is available to the users of your site. You can find an overview of the minimum required configuration for projects on each SAFe® level here: https://agilehive.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CLOUD/pages/512164556/Configure+Jira+Projects+For+Use+With+Agile+Hive#Minimum-Required-Project-Configuration. |
New Features
New ‘Critical Dependencies’ widget for ART & Team level: Reports for projects at the Team and ART level now include a new widget that presents an aggregated count of unresolved critical dependencies within the current project for the selected PI. For more detailed information on these dependencies, the 'Dependency Overview' widget offers additional details.
‘Teams Involved’ Custom Field for ART-level issues: The 'Teams Involved' Custom Field is now available for ART-level issues. This feature offers a comprehensive view of all the teams involved in contributing work to the specific issue at the ART level. The information about the involved teams is sourced from the hierarchical Agile Hive issue links, which can be managed through Agile Hive's 'SAFe® Hierarchy' panel in Jira's issue view.
‘Owning Team’ Custom Field for ART-level issues: The 'Owning Team' Custom Field is now available for ART-level issues. Individuals operating within an ART can utilize this field to store the team accountable for the specific ART-level issue. This data will subsequently be utilized in the forthcoming ART Planning Board, along with other Agile Hive features.
Bugfixes
Drag-and-drop of issues in the ‘Independent’ swimlane in Team Planning Boards: Fixed a bug that adversely affected user experience while planning issues in the 'Independent' swimlane of Team Planning Boards. When dragging and dropping issue cards within that swimlane, users may have encountered poor performance or even errors.
Minor visual glitches in Report widgets: Fixed two minor visual bugs that were causing Report widgets 'ART PI Objectives' and 'Team Iteration Overview' to be displayed incorrectly.
May 7, 2024
...
New Features
New ‘Burnup Chart’ widget for ARTs: The Burnup Chart report widget is now also available for Agile Release Trains and shows accumulated PI progress of the underlying Teams based on their burned Story Points compared to the total planned scope.
Please note that the Burnup Chart data is not retrospectively calculated for completed PIs and days already passed in the current PI as of today. This may cause the lines in the chart to jump from 0 to their current values for PIs that are already in progress.New ‘Dependency Overview’ widget for ART & Team level: The Dependency Overview report widget lists all issues within an ART or Team and the corresponding dependent issues, as well as their criticality, based on the planning order of the issues. Only critical or at risk dependencies are listed, providing a focused view on crucial interconnections.
Bugfixes
Loading PIs with restricted permissions failed: Fixed a bug, where loading PIs on lower hierarchy levels failed when permissions on an associated parent Jira project were restricted.
Loading report data on large instances failed: Improved stability for loading data in parallel for several report widgets, above all for higher SAFe® hierarchy levels and/or larger instances with a lot of planned issues within a Planning Interval.
Unreliable creation of Jira entities like issue status or workflows: Improved the check for present Jira entities in the admin app settings through ignoring different notations of the entities' names.
April 30, 2024
...
New Features
New ‘Team Burnup’ Report Widget: Reports for projects at the Team level now feature a new widget that provides a graphical representation of a Team's PI progress compared to the plan.

For more information on this widget please also see https://agilehive.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CLOUD/pages/607617051/Team+Reports#Burnup-Chart.
Please note that the Burnup Chart data is not retrospectively calculated for completed PIs and days already passed in the current PI as of today. This may cause the lines in the chart to jump from 0 to their current values for PIs that are already in progress.
Improvements
Retain selected PI when switching between Agile Hive views: When switching between views in Agile Hive, the selected program increment (PI) is now retained as a URL parameter. This enhancement prevents users from having to repeatedly re-select the PI for every view and enables seamless navigation within Agile Hive. Moreover, it facilitates sharing direct links to specific views in Agile Hive, automatically redirecting recipients to the correct PI.
Date Range Picker for creating new PIs and Iterations: Setting up new PIs and Iterations has become easier than ever! Agile Hive Administrators now have the convenience of using a Date Range Picker to select PI / Iteration Start and End Dates, eliminating the need to manually select each date with an individual date picker.
Bugfixes
Capacity in Team Planning Board fails to refresh upon pressing the 'Update Data' button: Fixed a bug that caused Capacity and Load not to update in Team Planning Boards when using the ‘Update Data’ button.
Incorrect color code for ‘Load vs. Cap’ Report widget: Fixed a bug that caused the 'Load vs. Cap' Report widget to not display information using the correct color code.

New Features
Quick filters for Unplanned Issues sidebar in Team and Roadmap Boards: Unplanned Issues in Roadmap and Team Boards can now be filtered to only display what's truly important, allowing for better focus. Agile Hive automatically incorporates the quick filters configured for the primary Jira board in that project (currently, this is the board with the lowest board ID). Users can apply multiple quick filters simultaneously and also utilize the search bar to conveniently locate specific issues.
Adding this functionality required adding new capabilities to the app’s scope resulting in this version being considered a major release (12.0.0) by Atlassian. Please refer to Upgrading and Versioning for more information on versioning of Cloud apps.
Improvements
Roadmap Board refreshes automatically after setting Start or End Date for Unplanned Issues: Agile Hive now automatically updates the Roadmap Board when users make changes to the Planned Start or End Date of an issue using the Jira issue modal. This simplifies roadmap planning and ensures users always have access to the latest data.

Refresh ‘Business Value Delivered’ Report widget after creating a new Objective: When creating a new PI Objective from the Reports page, the 'Business Value Delivered' widget will now automatically refresh to display the updated information of the newly added Objective.
Adjusted conditions for displaying a warning in ‘Story Points Burned’ and ‘Load vs Cap’ Report widgets: The warning associated with the Report widgets 'Story Points Burned' and 'Load vs Cap' will now only appear for issues of types that are capable of having a Story Point estimation.
Bugfixes
‘Update Data’ for Issue List results in infinite loading screen: Fixed a bug that caused an infinite loading screen when 'Update Data' was pressed in the Issue List view.
‘Update Data’ for completed or planned PIs displays data of current PI: Fixed a bug that caused Agile Hive views to display data from the current PI instead of the selected completed or planned PI after pressing ‘Update Data’.
‘Update Data’ did not reset timer after switching to another view: Fixed a bug where the timer of the 'Update Data' button was not being reset after switching to another Agile Hive view.
Visualization of tooltips broken for issue cards in Team Planning and Roadmap Boards: Fixed a bug where tooltips in Team Planning and Roadmap Boards were not being displayed in their intended location, but instead showing up at the top left corner of the screen.

April 5, 2024
Bugfixes
Issue with correctly assigning Agile Hive Administrator groups after app installation: Fixed a bug that caused random user groups to be displayed as holding the Agile Hive Administrator permission after installing the app from Atlassian Marketplace. This issue was purely visual and has been resolved.
Primary Scrum board detection not working as intended: Fixed a bug related to the automatic detection of a Jira project’s primary Scrum board for use with Agile Hive for Team-level projects. This bug caused iterations of PIs to not be accurately mapped to their corresponding Jira Sprints in the primary board, rendering Team Planning Boards unusable.
Report widget ‘Business Value Delivered’ stopped working for Team level projects: Fixed a bug that caused the Report widget 'Business Value Delivered' to stop displaying data for Team-level projects.
March 27, 2024
New Features
‘Expand / Collapse All’ toggle in Team Planning Boards: Team Boards now feature a new toggle switch that enables expanding / collapsing of all currently visible Feature swimlanes on the board. This option is especially useful when you need to concentrate on specific Features and eliminate any surrounding distractions.
Bugfixes
Some Report widgets stuck in loading state when refreshing: Fixed a bug that caused certain widgets in Reports to become stuck in a loading state when refreshing data.
Modal does not reset on Cancel when creating new PIs: Fixed a bug that caused the modal dialogue to retain old data for date input fields when the user canceled the process of creating a new PI and started over.
March 22, 2024
...
New Features
New ‘ART PI Objectives’ Report Widget: Reports for projects at the ART level now feature a new widget that provides an overview of all ART Objectives for the selected PI, along with a comprehensive view of the Business Value Delivered by all Teams operating within the ART. Moreover, the widget computes the ART Business Value Delivered based on the average across all Teams. For more detailed information on PI Objectives of a specific Team, simply click on the Team panel to navigate directly to the Team’s individual Reports.
‘Update Data’ button for Reports, Team Planning, and Roadmap Boards: As the majority of Agile Hive’s views showcase real-time data, it's possible for changes to occur (especially in the context of PI Planning) while you're viewing a particular page. To keep you informed about the currency of the data you're working with and to promptly refresh the view with the most recent information, we have included an ‘Update Data' button in the top right corner next to the 'Help' menu. This button not only indicates how long it has been since you last updated the data but also allows you to do so with a single click. One significant advantage of updating only the data instead of reloading the entire page is its lightning-fast performance - try it for yourself!
Bugfixes
‘ART PI Overview’ widget now displays all ART issues worked on in selected PI: Fixed a bug that caused the ART PI Overview widget to only display ART level issues planned using the ART Roadmap Board. It failed to include ART issues not in the Roadmap Plan but being worked on in the selected PI based on Stories planned at the Team level, which is contrary to its intended functionality. The widget now includes all ART issues being worked on in the selected PI.
March 14, 2024
...
New Features
New ‘ART PI Overview’ Report Widget: Reports for projects at the ART level now contain a new widget offering comprehensive insights into all planned ART issues for the selected PI. The ‘ART PI Overview' widget showcases details on WSJF, Assignee, and Progress, along with aggregated Story Points from issues across all teams operating within the ART, across all workflow categories. Furthermore, you can delve further into tracking each team's progress in delivering their portion for every ART Feature. If a Team is behind the plan, you can investigate further by clicking on the Team's icon to directly access the relevant report.
Improvements
Improved visualization for ‘Assigned PIs’ field in Jira Issue Create dialogue: When creating a new Objective or Risk issue, you now have a more convenient way to directly input Assigned PIs information. The input field for Agile Hive's 'Assigned PIs' Custom Field has been redesigned, offering an enhanced interface and user experience.
March 5, 2024
Improvements
Locally calculated Risk Exposure and WSJF Value in Reports: To promptly show accurate Risk Exposure and WSJF values, Agile Hive has implemented a feature where these values are computed locally in your browser when you access a Reports page. Particularly, after generating new issues involving Risk Exposure or WSJF, the computation of these fields is only triggered once the issue has been fully displayed by at least one user in the Jira Issue View.
This is due to a current limitation of Atlassian Forge development platform. More information can be found here: Technical Limitations. We’re closely monitoring the development of Forge platform and intend to further improve this functionality in the future.

March 12, 2025: Improved Planning of ART issues for Teams
New Features
Enhanced Planning of ART Features for Teams: Most updates to Team-level planning of ART Features, outlined at https://agilehive.atlassian.net/wiki/x/BADVP, are now available. This release introduces several improvements to how Team Planning Boards function:
Access the ART backlog directly from the ‘Unplanned Issues’ sidebar in the Team Planning Board.
Search the ART backlog in the ‘Unplanned Issues’ by entering search queries or using quick filters that are synced from the ART project's primary Jira board.
Drag and drop ART-level issues from the ‘Unplanned Issues’ sidebar to the Team Board, automatically creating a dedicated swimlane for the issue and allowing the Team to immediately start breaking it down into Stories.
The ‘Unplanned Issues’ sidebar now provides quick indicators showing which ART-level issues are assigned to the currently selected PI and Team, making it easy to identify the most relevant issues.
ART parent swimlanes in the Team Planning Board are no longer displayed based on the ART Roadmap plan. Instead, swimlanes are created using the Custom Fields ‘Assigned PIs’ and ‘Assigned Teams’ of ART-level issues. This change reduces clutter on the Team Planning Board by hiding irrelevant swimlanes, unless the Team actively adds them to the board or plans related work.
Please note: A forthcoming update will offer an easy way to remove swimlanes from Team Planning Boards. In the meantime, empty swimlanes can be removed by either clearing the ‘Assigned Teams’ field or the ‘Assigned PIs’ field for the respective ART-level issue.
March 11, 2025
Improvements
Inline editing experience for Agile Hive Custom Fields in Issue Detail view: In the Jira Detail view, Agile Hive Custom Fields such as Assigned PIs, Assigned Teams, and Owning Team now provide an enhanced inline editing experience, aligning with the editing functionality of default Jira fields.
Capacity input locked for completed Iterations in Team Planning Boards: Previously, it was possible to modify a Team's capacity for Iterations that had already been completed. Similar to Jira Sprints, Agile Hive now prevents changes to completed Iterations by locking the input fields for Team Capacity in Team Planning Boards.
Bugfixes
Multiple PI lanes in boards after moving ART projects: Fixed a bug that sometimes caused PI lanes to appear multiple times across various boards in Agile Hive after moving an ART-level project in 'My Organization.' This issue did not impact any stored data.
‘Expand swimlanes’ view option stuck after switching PIs: Fixed a bug that caused the "Expand swimlanes" view option to remain stuck in expanded mode, preventing the option to collapse swimlanes after switching PIs in the Team Planning Board.
March 6, 2025
Bugfixes
Features not displayed in the ART Planning Board if child issue was planned in a completed PI: Fixed a bug where Features were not displayed in the ART Planning Board if a child issue had been planned in a completed PI. This caused the Features to be entirely missing from the board, preventing visibility into their expected delivery dates.
March 4, 2025
Bugfixes
‘Cannot read properties of undefined’ error in ART Planning Board: Fixed a bug that occasionally caused a ‘Cannot read properties of undefined’ error when accessing the ART Planning Board.
‘Done’ issues appearing in results when applying quick filters in ‘Unplanned Issues’ sidebar: Fixed a bug where issues already marked as complete were sometimes incorrectly displayed in the "Unplanned Issues" sidebar of Team Planning and Roadmap Boards after applying certain quick filters. This was caused by an error in converting the quick filter from the Jira board into a JQL query compatible with Agile Hive’s boards.
February 28, 2025
Bugfixes
‘Parent’ cells not clickable in Issue List view: Fixed a bug where empty cells in the ‘Parent’ column of Agile Hive’s Issue List view were not clickable due to the element's height being too small.
Story Points no longer visible in ‘Unplanned Issues’ of Team Boards: Fixed a bug that resulted in Story Point information no longer being displayed in issue cards of ‘Unplanned Issues’ in Team Planning Boards.
February 21, 2025
New Features
Configure link direction for Dependencies in Agile Hive: Agile Hive Administrators can now configure the link direction for the Dependency Link Type within Agile Hive’s ‘App Settings’. This enhancement enables flexible use of any Jira Issue Link Type, even if its logical link direction differs from Agile Hive’s default interpretation of ‘inward’ and ‘outward’ links in Jira. When the link direction is toggled in Agile Hive, all boards and report widgets displaying dependencies will automatically adjust by reversing directed arrows and the relationships between linked issues.
New Global Permission ‘Manage Agile Hive Project Hierarchy’: This update introduces a new global permission that enables users to edit the project hierarchy setup in the ‘My Organization’ view of Agile Hive. For more details on Agile Hive’s permission model, please refer to Permissions.
Improvements
Enhanced Performance for ART & Team Reports and ART Planning Board: Based on customer feedback regarding slow loading times in certain Agile Hive views, we investigated potential optimizations for the affected areas. As an initial improvement, we have successfully reduced loading times by up to 40% for some Team Report widgets and the ART Planning Board, while certain ART Report widgets now load up to 20% faster.
We remain committed to enhancing the performance of all Agile Hive views in future updates.Extended auto-filling of site-related information when reporting a bug: When reporting a bug to the Agile Hive team through the ‘Help’ menu in the top right corner of Agile Hive views, the affected site's base URL is now automatically prefilled in the Service Desk request. This streamlines the process for users and helps the Agile Hive team more efficiently identify potential causes.
Bugfixes
Story Point estimation of 0 interpreted as ‘missing estimation’: Fixed a bug where Agile Hive identified tasks estimated at 0 Story Points as ‘missing estimation,’ causing a warning icon to incorrectly appear in certain Report widgets.
February 19, 2025
Bugfixes
Required permissions for creating Iterations for Large Solution PIs on ART level: Fixed a bug where users with the ‘Manage PIs and Iterations’ permission were unable to create Iterations for a Solution Train PI unless they also had the same permission at the Solution Train level. This primarily impacted RTEs, as they are typically responsible for a single ART within a Solution Train.
February 7, 2025
New Features
New Global Permission ‘View all Projects in Agile Hive Project Hierarchy’: This update introduces a new global permission that enables users to view the names and keys of all projects added to the ‘My Organization’ view in Agile Hive, even if they lack the ‘Browse projects’ permission for those projects. For more details on Agile Hive’s permission model, please refer to Permissions.
Bugfixes
Inaccurate Result Count in the ‘Unplanned Issues’ Sidebar: Fixed a bug that caused the item counter in the ‘Unplanned Issues’ sidebar of Roadmap and Team Planning Boards to display incorrect numbers.
‘Today’ indicator in Roadmap Boards overlaps context menu of issue cards: Fixed a bug where the ‘Today’ indicator on Roadmap Boards overlapped with the context menu of issue cards, accessible via the Three-Dot-Menu icon.
January 30, 2025
Improvements
Updating ‘Current day’ data in Burnup Charts: Burnup Charts in ART and Team Reports now load and update ‘Current day’ data asynchronously, significantly improving the widget's loading time. Since current-day data is always calculated in real-time, this change ensures faster processing without delays.
Bugfixes
Access ART views without ‘Browse projects' permission on Solution level: Fixed a bug that prevented users from accessing reports and boards in an ART project if they lacked the ‘Browse Projects’ permission for the ART’s parent project at the Large Solution level. The issue stemmed from PI information being requested from the Large Solution project, which the user was not authorized to read.
‘Unable to load data’ error in Milestone Report widget: Fixed a bug where the ‘Milestones’ widget in Reports displayed an error instead of the ‘+’ button for adding a new Milestone.
Error when displaying ART and Team project boards: Fixed a bug that caused error code 500 when displaying the ART Roadmap, ART Planning Board, Team Planning Board, and PI & Iteration Management at the Large Solution and ART levels. Additionally, we have implemented enhanced logging to further investigate potential causes of this issue, ensuring a more comprehensive fix that covers possible edge cases.

As of , this version was reverted due to an issue in the underlying Jira Cloud infrastructure, which rendered Agile Hive inaccessible and caused errors on some customer sites. As a result, Agile Hive was rolled back to the version released on December 19, 2024, retaining only the features available up to that date. Now that the root cause of the issue has been resolved, all features from the versions originally released on January 13, 2025, and January 17, 2025, are once again available to all customers with the release of January 29, 2025. |
New Features
Support for changing organization structure with carrying over PIs: Changes in ‘My Organization’ now respect and transfer existing PIs where applicable.
When moving an ART to a Large Solution, the ART retains its completed and current PIs, provided the current PI does not extend beyond any active PI of the Large Solution. The ART also becomes part of the Solution's planned PIs.
If the ART is detached from a Large Solution, it will carry over its completed PIs from when it was part of the Solution, ensuring that relevant data in the reports is preserved.New Custom Project Permissions: This version introduces new project permissions for more granular control over access and editing of Agile Hive's Project Settings. The new permissions, ‘Administer Agile Hive Projects’ and ‘Manage Agile Hive Project Members’, allow specific users to manage these aspects. Additionally, the default Jira permission ‘Administer Project’ continues to provide access to most project settings within Agile Hive (refer to Permissions for a more comprehensive overview).
‘Starred' Section in the Sidebar: Starred Jira projects within your company's organization in Agile Hive are now displayed in a dedicated section of the navigation sidebar, making it easier to quickly access the projects you work with most often.
Improvements
Criticality filter for the Dependency Overview widget: The ‘Dependencies’ widget now comes with a filter to display dependencies based on criticality. Filtering works just like in Agile Hive Team Planning and Roadmap Boards.
Introduce a more helpful error message for restricted Parent projects: If you lack access to a parent project (e.g., the superior ART), most data cannot be meaningfully displayed. Instead of causing a crash and returning an error 500, the system now suggests requesting access to the direct parent project when necessary.

Creating Iterations and Sprints with only having the ‘Manage PIs and Iterations’ permission on ART/LS levels: The newly introduced custom permission, ‘Manage PIs and Iterations’ (see https://agilehive.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CLOUD/pages/1032454145/Changelog+archive+2024#December-9%2C-2024%3A-%E2%80%98Manage-PIs-and-Iterations%E2%80%99-permission-major-Release), previously caused a bug when users had only this custom permission at the ART and LS layers, along with the ‘Manage Sprints’ permission for all underlying Team projects. Due to a misconfiguration, the mapping between Iterations and Sprints could not be saved. This release fixes the issue, ensuring that users with these permissions can now create PIs and Iterations as intended.

As of , this version was reverted due to an issue in the underlying Jira Cloud infrastructure, which rendered Agile Hive inaccessible and caused errors on some customer sites. As a result, Agile Hive was rolled back to the version released on December 19, 2024, retaining only the features available up to that date. Now that the root cause of the issue has been resolved, all features from the versions originally released on January 13, 2025, and January 17, 2025, are once again available to all customers with the release of January 29, 2025. |
New Features
‘Improved Planning’ mode in Team Planning Boards: To prepare for the revamped experience of planning and displaying ART Feature swimlanes on Team Boards, some functionality is now available in early access. Users can enable this preview on any Team Board by using the toggle switch located in the top toolbar.Status colour Purple title beta
When the 'Improved Planning' mode is activated, it severs the link between the Team Planning Board and the ART-level Roadmap. Consequently, only those ART Feature swimlanes that are tagged with specific values for the 'Assigned Teams' and 'Assigned PIs' Custom Fields will be displayed on the Team Planning Board.
Learn more on the upcoming changes and how to prepare here: Changes to planning of ART Features for Teams.Dynamically hide Agile Hive-specific interface elements in Jira views: In projects that are not set up in ‘My Organization’ within Agile Hive, interface elements of the app will no longer appear in Jira project views. This means the ‘View in Agile Hive’ navigation item, the ‘SAFe® Hierarchy’ option in an issue's ‘Apps’ menu, and the ‘Agile Hive’ context panel on the right-hand sidebar in Jira issue views will not be displayed. There will be no changes to projects that are included in ‘My Organization’.
Improvements
Creating new issues by pressing ‘C' in Agile Hive views reflects current project context: When you press the ‘C’ button in any Agile Hive view, now the 'Create Issue' modal automatically fills in with the project context you have been working in. Additionally, the issue type you last created is preselected to streamline the process of creating new issues and align better with the standard Jira experience.
Bugfixes
Long Team names in Team Boards did not wrap correctly: Fixed a bug where long Team names did not wrap properly in swimlanes on Team Planning Boards, leading to overlapping text labels or unintended line breaks.
Removing parent issues that no longer belong to the hierarchy failed in Issue List view: Fixed a bug that prevented users from removing or editing the parent information of issues when the existing parent was no longer included in the project hierarchy defined in 'My Organization'.
Team-level issues linked with deleted ART Feature not displayed in Team Planning Boards: Fixed a bug where Team-level issues linked to a deleted Feature at the ART level were not displayed on Team Planning Boards, despite being planned for the respective PI. These Team issues will now appear in the ‘Independent’ swimlane of the Team Planning Board.
Broken link to manage quick filters in Team Boards & Roadmap Boards: Fixed a bug that blocked users from accessing the quick filter settings from Team Planning Boards and Roadmap Boards.
Error code 500 when navigating to Reports and Planning tabs of Team-level projects within restricted ARTs: Fixed a bug where users received a 500 error code when attempting to access the Reports or Planning tab of a Team layer project linked to a restricted ART-level project.
Error code 403 flashing when navigating to Agile Hive Jira Administration: Fixed a bug where users encountered a fleeting 403 error code when trying to access Agile Hive settings in the Jira Administration. This occurred because permission checks in the backend took longer than the user interface to load.
