      Current Behavior:

      The current “no results” message may be misleading for users who lack Jira permissions. This can result in:

      • Confusion about whether the issue exists
      • Additional troubleshooting effort by users and administrators
      • Increased support requests to validate data availability

      Expected Behavior:

      Update the Jira work item macro behavior to detect when a user lacks Jira product or issue-level permissions and display a contextual message, such as:

      • “You don’t have permission to view this Jira issue.”
      • “Access to Jira is required to view this content.”
