Power Actions Panel

As an alternative to the Power Actions button you can now create forms and wizards in other areas of the Jira issue screen. The Power Actions panel can be configured to appear in the right column of the Jira issue screen or in the main body of the issue screen.

  3. Click the plus icon next to the name of your first panel screen.

     

  4. A new set of scripts will appear for the new screen that can now be customized the same way as the first screen.
