8. Notes
When updating a bookmark:
-
Remove Connect-specific authentication parameters such as
jwtandxdm_e. -
Replace
ac.filter=GANTT_{id}withgantt={id}. -
Replace
ac.tm=truewithtm=true. -
For project default Gantt charts, use the Jira project ID as a negative
ganttvalue. -
For project sidebar URLs, select the appropriate
{projectType}value based on the Jira project type. -
Do not copy temporary iframe or authentication parameters into the new bookmark.
