Integrity Check for Jira is a Jira an app that helps you identify and resolve any configuration errors in your Jira instance. It is available as a standalone app and as a feature bundled with Configuration Manager for Jira (CMJ).

Its goal is to identify, report, and resolve Jira configuration problems, which prevent users from performing their day-to-day activities. For example, users might have broken filters referring to missing configuration elements like custom fields. In this case, the Jira users won't be able to view the issues matching the filter.

Integrity Check scopes

You can run the Integrity Check for Jira for three different types of configuration scopes:

  • System Scope - System scope allows you to run an integrity check on your Jira instance's entire configuration. You can find and resolve all the configuration integrity errors in your Jira system.

  • Project Scope - Project scope allows you to run an integrity check on the configuration of a single project or sub-set of projects. This way, you can quickly locate the errors in a project or several projects in your Jira without running a check on the entire configuration.

  • Snapshot Scope (only with Configuration Manager for Jira) - When using Integrity Check for Jira as part of Configuration Manager for Jira (CMJ), you can use one more scope called a snapshot scope. The snapshot scope allows you to run an integrity check on the last failed Configuration Manager snapshot. Choose Snapshot Scope on the Integrity Check page and discover the root causes of configuration errors in failed snapshots.

Note

If your instance contains integrity errors, you'll not be able to create or deploy Configuration Manager CMJ snapshots that have errors within their scope. However, if Integrity Check detects a missing workflow on the system that is not used by a particular project, you still will be able to create a snapshot of this project.
