SQL Connector for Jira (DC)

Changes to Data Source Editing

To improve security, we are updating how data sources can be edited and configured. These changes will affect shared data sources, cloned data sources, and data sources with a changed owner.

What’s changing?

  • Shared data sources: Users a data source is shared with will no longer be able to edit it. The original owner will retain the ability to edit the data source.

  • Cloned data sources: When you clone a data source, you will need to set up your own SQL database connection to complete the configuration.

  • Data sources with a changed owner: If you change a data source's owner, the new owner will need to set up their own SQL database connection to complete the configuration.

In the upcoming release, manual installation of database drivers will also be disabled.

What do you need to do?

If you clone a data source or become the new owner of a data source, set up your own SQL database connection to complete the configuration. Once the configuration is complete, you can export data using the data source.

These changes are intended to improve security by ensuring that cloned data sources and data sources with a changed owner use their own database connections.
