      Updated 15th June 2016

      Hi all,

      Due to popular demand for functionality to turn off the pre-populate commenting feature and the low usage we experience with this feature we have decided to remove this feature from JIRA Service Desk. We understand some of you who use this feature regularly will be upset but based on our usage analytics only 0.05% of our comments made have used this feature. Rather then continue to add complexity to JIRA Service Desk by adding more controls to toggle this feature, we believe it is better to remove this feature completely.

      If you really do want a similar functionality back I will recommend voting on the ticket: JSD-631 Auto reply template feature, where we will be able to model similar behaviour and experience with canned responses.

            JSD-631 does not replace this functionality since there's no variable to represent the Agent in the canned response feature.

            My recommendation is to switch Canned Response off (via Dark Features) and use the ScriptRunner version instead, which is able to grab report and agent first names.

            Same here. We used it and miss it. We upgraded this morning and are already getting complaints...

            This feature was used by folks in my company. Some liked it and got used to it. I wish you at least checked with us before removing this feature. If there was a way to disable it, I don't see why it was removed.

            Again, please check with customers on how they really use your product before you remove or tweak features.
