Comment Defaults for Jira

In Jira Cloud every new comment is visible to everyone who can see the issue, unless the author remembers to pick a role or group each time. One forgotten click, and an internal note reaches a client, a contractor or a guest. Comment Defaults sets the default for you.

What you get

• Rules by project, issue type and author group: "comments in the ACME project are visible to Developers only", "comments by the contractors group are visible to the Contractors group".
• Safety net: every new comment, from the web, mobile, email, the REST API or automation, is checked and restricted within seconds. An hourly check catches anything that slipped through.
• Restricted comment composer on the issue: write a comment that is restricted from the moment it exists, so it never appears in anyone else's notifications. If you @mention someone outside the chosen role or group, it warns you before posting.
• Dry run: see what the rules would do before they change anything.
• Log: every restricted comment, which rule did it and how long it was visible, exportable as CSV.
• Check setup: shows, per project, whether the app may edit comments and is in the roles it restricts to, and adds the app to a missing role in one click.
