    Actual Results

    The "Side" navigation landmark does not have a programmatically defined accessible name.

    As a result, users of assistive technologies will not be able to understand the purpose of the landmark.

    Expected Results

    Elements must have programmatically defined accessible names so that their purpose is communicated to assistive technology users. In this scenario, use aria-label attribute to provide an accessible name for the landmark. Make sure that the accessible name signposts the purpose of the landmark.
    Note (1): Before implementing any accessible name, kindly contact the content design team.
    Note (2): We would suggest you to please change the name of the primary landmark from "Site" to "Primary" to maintain consistency across all Atlassian products.
