Rovo agent permissions decide who can create and use an agent. CogniRunner 6.1 agents wait for a Jira admin to approve any delete, config or identity call.

Jira Cloud answers JQL on a missing custom field with HTTP 200 and a count of zero. I swept 197 custom fields on a live site to find the gate.

Turn Atlassian's copied-data page into a scope document. Three-state coverage, an id remap table, and a differ that exits non-zero on an ambiguous name.

notifyUsers=false on Jira's edit-issue endpoint, measured on a live Cloud tenant: which event actually fires, and four ways a test bed fakes a pass.

sendNotifications false on a Jira Automation comment still sends the mail. Which endpoints carry a real suppression flag, and how to spot a fake one.

Jira's CSV importer always requires a populated Summary field, even when you're only updating a custom field like Assets. Here's why, and how to import safely.
