    Comments & Chatter Settings

    Image Removed

    Comment Tag Filter

    Separate each tag in the list by a space to filter Salesforce comments (e.g. '#Jira #Jira-service-management').

    If configured, only Salesforce comments with at least one of the tags in their body will be displayed.

    Image Removed

    Show Chatter Feeds

    If enabled, Chatter feeds will be shown in the Salesforce Comments tab.

    For more information, see Working with comments.

    Query Optimization

    Optimize the association JQL query

    If enabled, this option can help improve performance by fine-tuning the JQL query that retrieves Salesforce and Jira associations, where it will be limited to projects with active binding. This option is disabled by default because the issue usually only affects projects with a very large number of Jira issues (around 5,000 or more).
