  3. Create the request

  4. Go to either approvals (/servicedesk/customer/user/approvals) or requests (servicedesk/customer/user/requests)

  5. Make sure that you either created the request through the servicedesk, or within the main JSM page when you explicitly have a Request type on the sidebar in the Jira portal for each of the open requests that you need to render in requests.

I accidentally deleted the login screen view, how can I log back in to into the service?

If the login screen view is deleted and , saved with Module based design, and that the administrator user logs out, the servicedesk service desk is unaccesible inaccessible unless it is enabled again. One could see it back if writing in the web browser console the following:

document.getElementById("content").style.display = "block";

I cannot access the Permissions or Documentation page on Chrome

Using browser extensions, such as LastPass fo for Google Chrome, may overwrite external links such as Permissions and Documentation, please consider temporarily disabling the extension not to overwrite your Browser from opening plain URL links.

I need a linked knowledge base to access /kb pages, how do I set it up?

It can be done by setting up a Confluence instance. To do so,

1. Start a confluence instance

  1. Start a shell in an empty folder

  2. Run confluence as a standalone instance (with extra memory)

atlas-run-standalone --product confluence --jvmargs "-Xmx1024m -Xms1024m"

2. Start a Jira app instance

  1. From an app project folder run atlas-run (with desired profiles)

atlas-run -P packrelease,ascustomizer,withdb,nolicenserequired

3. Setup connection from Jira to Confluence

  • Make sure the base URL is correct in Jira.
    Go to ⚙️ > System > General configuration (Base URL).
    Set the URL to the one in the browser, eg. <http:localhost:2990/jira>.

  • Create an app link from Jira to Confluence

    1. Go to ⚙️ > Applications

    2. Renew a [time-bomb license](https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/marketplace/timebomb-licenses-for-testing-server-apps/ ) if needed

    3. <!--
      Go to the Application links
      Click the Create link to link our running UC app.
      Select Atlassian product.
      Add http://localhost:1990/confluence as the Application URL
      -->

    4. Follow the redirect to confluence and confirm the link from confluence to Jira

If the link from Jira to Confluence fails, make sure that their app link is using the same Auth.

Else try to delete the app link in both and set it up again.
