Bamboo server is unable to filter JIRA issue keys not in the default format

      According to https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Changing+the+Project+Key+Format it is possible to change the default project key format in jira.
      Bamboo does not allow for a non-default Jira project key to be used. The parser will only filter the default format of [A-Z][A-Z]+ and ignore other patterns.

      If JIRA has been modified to allow non default characters as part of the issue key:

      and an issue key has been configured to contain non default char: TEST_TEST for example then the created JIRA link in Bamboo will be incomplete, seemingly truncated.

      JIRA Issue:

      Bamboo link:

      In this screenshot I happen to have an issue in JIRA with the key TEST-1 (in addition to TEST_TEST-1) and the bottom most link under JIRA issues links to the incorrect issue TEST-1 instead of the proper TEST_TEST-1. It seems somewhere in link creation/rendering that info is truncated and neither link points to the right place.

      If this issue is fixed please update https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/AdminJIRAServer073/Changing+the+project+key+format and remove warning about Bamboo integration.

            tansu.kahyaoglu at this point I am only considering support for underscores as part of BAM-13683.

            EDIT: I've reopened this - I think we could support the full range of configurable keys. It may be some time before we get to this but I will certainly consider it for a future release that focuses JIRA.

            Dear Atlassian,

            In the light of the announcement below, will you consider this request again?

            Hi watchers and voters,

            As of JIRA 6, Atlassian has announced that it will be ending support for project key format configurations. This means that will be not feasible for Atlassian to implement support for this feature in Bamboo.

            Thanks for your support,
            James Dumay
            Product Manager

            I've reinstated the 'alert' on the following pages:
            http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BAMBOO/Integrating+Bamboo+with+JIRA
            http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BAMBOO033/Integrating+Bamboo+with+JIRA
            http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BAMBOO032/Integrating+Bamboo+with+JIRA

            Alert text is:
            If integrating Bamboo with JIRA, you should not change the JIRA project key format from the default, as Bamboo only supports the default project key format.

            I'm adding this to JIRA docs as well...

            I would appreciate if proper info could be put on Configuring Project Keys documentation page (http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA044/Configuring+Project+Keys) as this is not mentioned that changing the pattern will break Jira-Bamboo integration.

            even better: bamboo might retrieve the regex from jira via the remote api. Then no configuration is required.

            Ken Wood added a comment -

            Please allow Bamboo to have a regex property for Jira Issues. Otherwise, when one customizes Jira via it's regex property, one breaks the Bamboo+Jira integration.
