      Problem Definition

      Jira has the rate limiting (RL) feature as detailed in Improving instance stability with rate limiting to restrict the number of requests an external automation would make.

      Currently, if we enable RL it would be applied 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

      As a Jira administrator, it would be interesting to allow unlimited access to the REST API outside of business hours.
      For example:

      • From Monday to Friday, RL should be enabled between 6:00 AM and 8:00 PM (server time).
      • RL could be completely disabled outside of the above schedule.

      Suggested Solution

      Make it possible to select hours in a day, and days on a week, when rate limiting would be enabled.

      Workaround

      Adjust an external integration to enable/disable rate limiting through internal API methods.
      Refer to JRASERVER-74708 for some examples on available internal REST API methods.
