#20 - Firefox version of extension was disabled after the latest release of Firefox

shridhar-tl commented on Dec 05, 2019

After the latest version of Firefox is released, for some users the extension is automatically disabled / removed.

Solution: If the extension is disabled you can enable it again from the "Add-ons" menu in Firefox. If it is removed, then you will have to install it again from the following URL: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/jira-assistant/

But unfortunately, in store as well it is disabled. So till new version is uploaded again to Firefox addons store, their is no way around this to use in Firefox. I assume a new version will be available for Firefox in a couple of weeks from the date of this issue being raised.

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.
