Structure 3 Quick Start Guide
Structure 3.2 is an incremental update in the Structure 3 series. It contains several new features, important improvements and bug fixes.
Upgrade is recommended; it is required if you experience any issues with the current version of Structure.
It's now possible to create a separate backup of the Structure data and later restore structures from backup. Although Structure data is also backed up when you make a full JIRA backup, the separate backup may be used to restore structures without affecting JIRA data or to export structures to other systems by reading the XML backup file.
We're still working on Migration feature, which will allow moving structures from one JIRA to another.
Documentation: Structure Backup, Restore and Migration
Backup and Restore used to be Structure 2 features, but they were disabled with the release of Structure 3, as we've moved the storage from a separate database into the JIRA main database. Now they are being reinstated.
We have listened to our users who were unhappy with how Structure worked on the project page and we have made some improvements.

You can now add a column that would show you a hierarchical number (for example, "2.1.15"), based on the item's position in the hierarchy.

For those who love using keyboard, we added a special shortcut – s,q
– that displays a lookup window where you can find all actions you can take by their name.
You can use this lookup to see if there's an action for what you need to do or to look up keyboard shortcuts for actions.

We have fixed several problems related to Structure's dashboard gadget being used in Confluence.
Unfortunately, a problem with loading custom fonts still remains due to an an issue in JIRA, so some of the custom Structure icons may not be displayed inside Confluence. There's a workaround – see Setting Up CORS Filter in JIRA.

The following issues have been addressed in Structure 3.2:
Structure 3.2 and all extensions support JIRA versions from 6.3 to 7.1. Note that for Structure there are separate downloadable files for JIRA 6 and JIRA 7. All editions of JIRA (JIRA Core, JIRA Software, JIRA Service Desk) are supported.
Structure 3.2 is the last minor version of Structure 3 to support JIRA 6.3. Structure 3.3 will most likely support JIRA versions starting from 6.4.
Please note that if you're using Structure.Pages, you will have to upgrade it to version 1.0.1.
Please note that if you're using Structure.Testy, you will have to upgrade it to version 2.0.2.
