#175 - HTTP/400 answer from Jira ignored while creating worklog entry

mlouiset commented on Dec 27, 2022

Hi, First, thank you for this great extension! makes my life much easier 👍

Here is my concern: On a (cloud) Jira Project I changed the configuration to prevent users from creating work log entries on Epics. I did this: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Disable-quot-Log-work-quot-on-EPIC/qaq-p/610394#M410540 As a consequence, Jira now answers with a HTTP/400 response while attempting to create a work-log entry on an Epic. But JiraAssistant seems to ignore it.

Steps to reproduce:

Add a new work-log entry on an Epic from the calendar view
reload the page (Shift+F5)

Actual Behaviour: While adding the work-log entry, the "Add worklog" window stay opened, and no worklog in the calendar view While reloading the page, I can see the work-log entry in the calendar view, but not sync (marked as to be uploaded, which always fails)

Expected Behaviour: display the error message returned by Jira in a pop-up window(?)

Best regards

Latest updates

27-Nov-2023 - Change in permissions for JA

In upcoming version (v2.58) of JA, by default, permission to access Cloud instance of Jira would be added. This would let the users to integrate with Cloud instance of Jira without prompting for permission at the time of integration. Hence for Chrome users, once the extension gets updated, it would get disabled due to change in permission. You can enable it again from Extensions page. However, for Firefox and Edge, extension already have access to all the sites (though it doesn't really need) which would be narrowed down only to atlassian.net which would be a security improvement.
