Hi everyone,
Thank you for raising and voting on Default Description Templates. Your feedback is invaluable in shaping and enhancing Jira for all users.
Given the high volume of feature suggestions for Jira and issues in particular, we must prioritize those that provide the most value to the majority of our users. After a thorough review by the team, we have decided that we will not be able to implement Default Description Templates in the immediate future, but we hope the workaround described below using plugins is helpful.
Please remember that jira.atlassian.com is only one of many inputs for our roadmap. We’re continuously learning, analysing and interviewing customers to make Jira better. We encourage you to also share your feedback through Atlassian Community. Please also check out latest updates and upcoming plans from the Jira Cloud roadmap and the Atlassian Cloud release notes blog.
We understand that our decision may be disappointing. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or feedback.
Regards,
Angela Hawkins
