Important Notice: Restrictions During the Re-Indexing Process
To maintain the integrity and stability of the app's configuration, please be aware that during the initial indexing process of the Issue Pickers App, certain activities will be temporarily restricted:
Adding New Issue Pickers: The process of integrating new Issue Pickers into the system will be disabled. This precaution is to ensure that the indexing captures a consistent snapshot of the current system state without interference from new additions.
Modifying and Deleting Existing Issue Pickers: Similarly, changes or alterations to existing Issue Pickers will not be permitted during this phase. This restriction is crucial for preserving the integrity of the data being indexed and for preventing any potential inconsistencies or errors in the configuration.
