      Problem Definition

      Jira Cloud supports customizing Look and Feel via REST API: https://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/cloud/#api/2/application-properties-setPropertyViaRestfulTable

      Suggested Solution

      Add support for Jira Data Center to customize Look and Feel using a REST API.

      Important Note

      JRASERVER-63215 was changed to a Suggestion, as this REST API is not supported or documented for Jira Data Center. JRASERVER-63215 was previously raised as a bug that referenced Jira Cloud's REST API documentation, highlighting the unexpected behavior when using the same endpoint in Jira Data Center:

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Use REST PUT to alter Color to any color using the following PUT (Example color #ffffff / White) 
        curl -k -D- -u user:password -X PUT --data '{"value" : "#ffffff"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://<BASE_URL>/rest/api/2/application-properties/jira.lf.top.bgcolour

      Expected Results

      using the above query the Header Background Color will be changed to white #ffffff and the header navigation bar will reflect the updated value

      Actual Results

      • the value in the Header Background Color will be changed to white #ffffff
      • But the color change does not apply to the actual header background color, in the screenshot below the Pink should be white per the defined settings:
