  1. Instance Auditor (Jira) functionality is restricted to what Atlassian makes available via its REST API. There will be times our customers will desire additional information or functionality for specific items. While RenWare would like to accommodate its customers, we can only supply the data that Atlassian allows access to.

  2. Some areas may appear that the total count is off. One such area is Statuses where you will potentially see many more statuses in your instance than those displayed via Instance Auditor (Jira). The Atlassian REST API endpoints will have additional restrictions in certain areas. Staying with our example, Atlassian’s REST API only pulls statuses that are actively being used.

    1. While this may seem like a negative, it is actually in line with the purpose of Instance Auditor (Jira). Simply export a report of statuses from the app and then compare it to the content listed in Jira’s built-in Statuses area. You can easily see which statuses can be removed because they are inactive and do not appear on the Instance Auditor (Jira) exported list. Same goes for any other area where you feel your instance has more data than what Instance Auditor (Jira) is showing.

  3. Atlassian allows next-generation projects to be retrieved, but currently does not allow next-generation project information to be retrieved--such as workflows.

  4. Deletion and Bulk Deletion have been added to Instance Auditor (Jira). However, the deletion functionality is limited to what Atlasssian allows via the REST API. You will see a trash can icon on the button ribbon for any areas where Atlassian allows delete functionality.

  5. Deletion and Bulk Deletion works for any table pages that are not in view. Of course, you have the option to expand the table so your selections are within your immediate view. But in case you have a lot of data that still requires the paging feature, rest assured that the delete functionality works across pages.

  6. Select/Deselect All is available for the complete dataset or on a per page basis.

    1. Click the checkbox in the header row above the column that contains the checkboxes for each row to Select/Deselect All rows returned in the returned dataset.

    2. Click the button with the checkbox as its image to Select/Deselect All rows on a per page basis.

  7. Expand/Collapse All is available for the complete dataset or on a per page basis.

    1. Click the plus/minus sign in the header row above the column that contains the plus/minus symbol for each row to Expand/Collapse All rows in the returned dataset.

    2. Click the button with the Up/Down Arrow as its image to Expand.Collapse All rows on a per page basis.

  8. In the second column of each tab, you will see a green plus symbol. This symbol is clickable and will display a new row of information.

  9. The Column Visibility button will help you control which columns are exported. You should also note that the export process will export selected rows. So if you only want to export a subset of the data, simply select the desired rows prior to performing any of the copy or export operations.

  10. In the event you would like to export a subset of the returned data, you can use the search feature to reduce the amount of exported data.
