A new authentication plugin for JIRA and Confluence required all the user names to change. The users names in JIRA and Confluence now include the full EPPN (e.g. Net ID + @wisc.edu). Groups using quick filters, queries, or reports associated with the assignee need to update any references to the previous user names.
Jira project and Confluence space owners should:
- Update any references to the previous user names. Most often in filters, queries, and reports
- Test any application link features between JIRA and Confluence
- Report anything that is not working as expected by emailing help@doit.wisc.edu
