Fixed Changed order of properties in the Sprint custom field

We’ve changed the order of properties in the Sprint custom field. So far, the properties in the Sprint custom field were ordered starting with id, rapidViewId, and state. With the latest Jira Software Long Term Support (LTS) 10.3.4, these properties are listed alphabetically by property name, starting with activatedDate, autoStartStop, and completeDate. This change standardizes the property order and improves consistency across API responses.

This change might affect scripts or integrations that rely on the previous order of properties. To avoid potential issues, we recommend updating your script to parse key/value pairs instead of relying on the position of keys.

More details

For example, in Jira 9.12.14, the Sprint field content starts with id and is followed by rapidviewId, state, name, startDate, endDate, completeDate, activatedDate, sequence, goal, synced, autoStartStop, and incompleteIssuesDestinationId. See the line 12 in the code below.

Announcement Important notice: Updates to REST API rate limits

We have recently noticed an unusual increase in API usage. In order to maintain reliable services for both Atlassian customers and partners, we will begin enforcing more granular rate limits for Confluence and Jira APIs.

We will begin enforcing REST API (Quota and Burst based) rate limits for all free apps on or after August 18, 2025. We have added additional headers to provide further transparency. Please monitor header responses to see where you are at with regard to limits.

In some circumstances where apps are highly impacting the stability of our platform, we reserve the right to enforce the limits at an earlier date. We will notify your listed contact via email if you are impacted. Additionally, we are planning to bring clarity to rate limits across our platform infrastructure over the next year, including paid apps.

We recommend all customers and partners ensure they're not exceeding the rate limits so that they do not get impacted at a later date.

Learn more about the header responses and read relevant FAQs about rate limiting adjustments for Jira here and Confluence here.

Announcement Introducing search API with Jira Data Center 10.4

As announced last year, we’re working on enabling OpenSearch as an opt-in feature. We’ve laid the foundations with the new Jira search API. This API aims to provide a comprehensive common and efficient index and search access method, effectively addressing the limitations of the current Lucene index access methods.

If your apps use Lucene search and index access directly, ensure their migration to the new search API because the older Lucene-specific methods are deprecated in Jira Data Center 10.4 and will be removed in future.

This release marks the first milestone of our larger purpose aimed at replacing the Lucene-based indexing process with OpenSearch for customers choosing to do so.

Read the Jira search API upgrade notes for important info on the new search and index access methods.
