#182 - local time does not match between Jira Service Desk and Jira Assistant

ITGuyOhio commented on Jan 04, 2023

When I record time in Jira Service Desk (ex 15min logged at 07:00 AM) the incorrect time is displayed in Jira Assistant (from previous example 15min is logged at 05:00 PM not 07:00 AM). I've checked the Time Zone setting matches in the Jira Assistant-User Groups and in my Atlassian profile chrome-extension:///index.html#/2/settings/usergroups https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/account-preferences What else am I missing? Please advise

Thanks Matt Kinne

Hi @ITGuyOhio , You will need to verify if your local timezone is same as that of Jira's timezone. The timezone you set in User groups is just for viewing the report. But when you log the work, it would log based on your local timezone.

Thank you for the response. I will confirm this. I actually think it is an issue with Google Chrome (other browsers report the correct time). If I visit http://browserspy.dk/date.php or https://whatismytimezone.com/ They both report my time is 10 hours ahead.

again, thanks for the response. If you have any thoughts on my last comment I'd appreciate some ideas.

I've already tried many things Confirmed BIOS time Confirmed system time/timezone wiped and reinstalled Chrome logged in with fresh user account

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.
