The bi-directional sync and blocks you from changing the start/end date. You can't move a task on the Gantt timeline because the App can't update Jira field values to reflect start/end date changes.
When setup is complete (the fields selected for start/end date mapping exist in a Jira project), the App can perform bi-directional sync without problems. The fields mapped as start/end dates are updated accordingly.
