    • Our product teams collect and evaluate feedback from a number of different sources. To learn more about how we use customer feedback in the planning process, check out our new feature policy.

      If you have JIRA and Stash both using Crowd and having an application link between JIRA and Stash. If Stash is using an alias, then JIRA won't be able to see that alias and hence the source and commit tabs in JIRA would not show information from Stash.

      Steps to reproduce :

      1. Set up Stash with users managed in Crowd
      2. Set up JIRA with users managed in Crowd
      3. Set an alias in Crowd for Stash users only.
      4. Set up application link between JIRA ad Stash
      5. Notice that in Stash the user is recognised with its alias and not username.
      6. Try to browse an issue's Commit and Source tab in JIRA
      7. The information would not be shown as JIRA does not see the user alias in Crowd.

      You will see an error like this in the logs :

      Workaround
      For now the only workaround is to use aliases for JIRA as well.
