      Issue Summary
      Forge apps that define a jira:adminPage module are no longer accessible through the Jira Cloud UI. Previously, navigating to Jira Settings → Apps displayed a sidebar listing Forge admin page modules. This path now redirects directly to admin.atlassian.com → Connected Apps, which does not surface jira:adminPage modules.

       

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Deploy a Forge app with a jira:adminPage module defined in the manifest (without useAsConfig or useAsGetStarted flags).
      2. Install the app on a Jira Cloud site.
      3. Navigate to Jira Settings → Apps (or /jira/settings/apps).
      4. Observe the redirect to admin.atlassian.com → Connected Apps.
      5. Attempt to locate the Forge app's admin page module in the Connected Apps interface.

       

      Expected Results
      The Forge jira:adminPage module should be accessible from the Jira admin UI — either within the Jira Settings sidebar (as it was previously).

      Actual Results

      • Jira Settings → Apps redirects to admin.atlassian.com → Connected Apps with no link or entry point to the Forge admin page module.
      • The jira:adminPage route ({site}.atlassian.net/jira/settings/apps/configure/{appId}/{envId}) still renders if accessed via direct URL, but there is no UI navigation path to reach it.

      Workaround
      Partial workarounds exist but are limited:

      1. Direct URL access — Navigate manually to {site}.atlassian.net/jira/settings/apps/configure/{appId}/{envId}.
      2. Manifest update — Adding useAsConfig: true to jira:adminPage module, which surfaces a "Configure" button in Connected Apps. However, this requires a manifest change and redeployment, and the Connected Apps page is only accessible to site-admins (not Jira project/product admins).
