      Atlassian Update - 24 March 2020

      Hi Everyone,

      I want to provide a quick update for this topic. This feature, support linking an external web link, is currently rolled out to 100% of Jira cloud users, you will be able to see it in a drop-down menu next to "Link issues" in the action menu in the new issue view.

      Regards,

      Atlassian Update - 11 Feb 2020

      Hi Everyone,

      I want to provide a quick update for this topic. We started the work on this feature, support linking an external web link, and aiming to roll it out in the next couple of weeks and it will include all the existing functionality that was on the old issue view. I know this has taken a while to build out, but rebuilding Jira issues is no small feat, so we very much appreciate your patience on this.

      In the meantime, you can opt out of this new issue experience via your Personal Settings > Jira Labs section will have a 'new issue view' toggle to turn it on or off. We will not be disabling this opt-out option until we have rebuilt all the key features of the Jira issues experience you have come to know and love.

      Regards,
