Yes - you can disable the buttons in the general settings.
The sync can then be started using triggers
You mean the First Sync, correct? Are next syncs affected?
Trigger will start sync every time I create an issue that matches its condition (issue belonging to the desired project).
Is it there a way to make the first sync optional?
You lost me about 'first sync'
Can you elaborate
Francis Martens (Exalate) I think I've found how to solve the issue. I modified outgoing script as follows:
if (issue.projectKey != "PKEY"){
// do nothing
}
else {
replica.key = issue.key
replica.type = issue.type
replica.assignee = issue.assignee
replica.reporter = issue.reporter
...
}
When pressing Exalate button in any other project with projectKey different than "PKEY", an empty replica is generated and the sync is ignored. No changes after pressing the button.
If the button is pressed in project "PKEY", the sync progress successfully.
My comments about firstSync was because my concern was about not just synching existing issues but to avoid creating NEW issues in the other side, when a user press Exalate by mistake in another project.
Is this solution valid?
The solution looks valid. The only thing is that the sync will not happen in case of other projects. As long as the user is not expecting it, I guess it is fine
ps. you can also do
if (issue.projectKey != "PKEY") return replica.key = issue.key replica.type = issue.type replica.assignee = issue.assignee replica.reporter = issue.reporter
Hi, I´ve connected two Jira systems belonging to different companies. The purpose of this deployment was just to keep single project in both sides synched
However both Jira systems has many other projects and all of them show the Exalate options (menu/buttons) and we need to prevent them to be used.
Is it there a way to disable Exalate controls in specific projects or is it there a way to implement this in the sync rules scripts?
