Version Highlights
Changes in DetailTransformation TimeoutIn Structure 4.6, we introduced a feature for pausing the structure generation process if it takes too much time. If loading a structure with automation takes longer than allowed, the generation process would stop to avoid performance impact on Jira. This limit was not applied to transformations, which could potentially cause the same performance impact. In this version we've introduced a mechanism that will pause the generation process if it exceeds the time limit, regardless of whether it is caused by the automation that is a part of the structure, or by the additional transformations applied on top. Backup/Restore/Migration ImprovementsWe have added several additional options for Structure Backup/Restore/Migration operations. Starting with Structure 5.5, the Structure configuration and the dark feature settings will be stored not only in Jira backups but also in Structure backups. When restoring from a Structure backup, the saved Structure configuration (like the settings set by the Jira administrator) will overwrite the active Structure configuration. When migrating Structure data, you can choose if you want to restore the general Structure permissions settings, such as projects enabled for Structure, and if you want to restore the enabled dark features. Supported VersionsStructure 5.5 and all extensions support Jira versions 7.6 or later. All editions of Jira (Jira Core, Jira Software, Jira Service Desk) are supported. Jira Data Center is supported. With respect to other add-ons and custom integrations, this release is backwards-compatible with Structure 3.4–5.4. Structure.Testy extension, Colors, Structure.Pages, Structure.Gantt and integrations with third-party apps should continue working normally. Installation and Upgrade
