3. Initial App Indexing

Required Jira Role: Jira Software Administrator

Upon its initial installation or following a re-installation, the Issue Pickers App initiates an initial indexing process. This crucial step is designed to:

  1. Restoring Issues Pickers created by a previous Installation

  2. Comprehensive Project and Issue Key Review: The app meticulously scans through all pre-existing projects and their associated issue keys. This thorough examination ensures that no element within your project scope is overlooked.

  3. Creation of a High-Speed, Accessible Cache: To significantly boost the efficiency of your operations, the app constructs a rapid-access cache. This cache is securely hosted on your cloud instance, offering you swift and reliable access to your data.

  4. Acceleration of Option Search Functionality: The primary aim of this indexing process is to enhance the speed of our option search function. By streamlining this aspect, the app ensures that users can find what they need with unprecedented speed and accuracy, leading to a smoother, more efficient workflow.

Important Notice: Restrictions During the Initial 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.
