      Atlassian Update – 28 Jan 2021

      Hi everyone,

      Thank you for your interest in this issue.

      This suggestion is considered a potential addition to our longer-term roadmap. We'll typically review this request in about 12 months time, at which point we’ll consider whether we need to alter its status.

      For the nearest future we've decided to prioritise other areas of the Jira Service Management roadmap.

      We hope that you appreciate our candid and transparent communication. You can read more about our approach to highly voted suggestions here, and how we prioritise what to implement here.

      To learn more about our recent investments in Jira Service Management and Data Center, please check our public roadmap and our two dashboards containing recently resolved issues, and current work and future plans.

      Kind regards,

      Charlie

      Jira Service Management, Server & Data Center


      Currently it is not possible to use create a subdomain, f.e support.example.com and link this subdomain to the service desk url https://www.example.com/jira/servicedesk/customer/key.

      Workaround

      Use a Reverse Proxy or URL redirect service external from JIRA.

      Another workaround is described in How to customize customer portal URL in JIRA Service Desk Server

      • Please ensure you test this first on your test instance before you implement on your production.
      • Please also note that Atlassian does not support this customization.

          Form Name

            [JSDSERVER-513] Make it possible to use service desk in combination with subdomains

            This is one of the most ridiculous blocks I've seen for such a product. We also will be looking for other means and potentially moving out of their cloud service which seems to be a giant money grab compared to on prem which is WAY easier to manage as well as doesn't charge you per person because they "may" have access to a project... ouch.

            Is there any update on this feature request? When will custom subdomains for Jira SD be implemented?

            There's still datacenter for onprem. Which means Atlassian is continuing to give the big FU-WeDontCare to people who are paying $42k+ a year for software.

            That's half a developer salary... they can't take 10-20 hours to develop custom domains? Come on...

            Hi,

            you are partially right, David, but there is so much functionality missing in cloud versions that this sounds more like wishful thinking. In any case I believe we should give Atlassian some feedback and this is one of the places to do so. We are extremely disappointed with their approach and will move somewhere else after they transition to cloud and EOL server edition. If they don't want our money, we will just spend it somewhere else, c'est la vie.

            Hi,

            I very doubt Atlassian will do anything about all those 5+ years old tickets pertinent to products that are soon going EOL They're going to force all customers to migrate to their Cloud products so it's probably more efficient and less frustrating to log features features there instead. Therefore, it's a bit pointless to leave further comments here - am unsubscribing as well as looking for alternative products that are open source and new key features can be added by community or do it myself within weeks or months but not years or never. Atlassian have proven over the past 8 years that they don't seem to care about what customers are saying and tend to stick to their own roadmap ignoring those who products are made for in the first place.

            Best,

            David

            such an obvious disregard for customer needs is quite eloquent. nice job atlassian.

            This is such a simple feature to implement that I can't understand why they would frustrate people by not doing it.

            I have got around the problem by using IIS and ARR which means everyone is sent to my IIS server by and nice, easy to remember URL instead of directly Jira and I just reroute the requests. Not something I should have to maintain separately though!

            After a year of nothing from this we moved ourselves and others off JSD as this is critical and a big failure on their part to not get this in ASAP especially when it got voted to the top so fast.

            Atlassian will soon be a history at our and customers' businesses as this is unacceptable to wait years for critical issues to be resolved when they're focusing on and prioritising riddiculous things such UI refresh that no one really needs. You're literally killing your own products - good luck with sustaining your corpo in future when customers finally give up on you and switch over to alternatives!

            Hahaha, yes as Matthias before me wrote: this is cleary a big joke.

             

            I received an Webinar invitation this morning "Free Webinar: Learn about Atlassian's Jira Service Management" 

             

            The first sentence says: "Want to learn more about Jira Service Management in 2021? Don't miss out on this free 20-minute webinar session about"

             

            Nope we don't want to learn about all that stuff which is fancy and coming this year if some basic functionality still doesn't exist.

             

            At the moment I believe Atlassian made poor software architecture choices and it is just not possible for them to build such an feature. Maybe we get it on the Cloud Service ?

            The alternatives are not even close to any decent solution. For years this topic is been ignored and put aside. What needs to happen that this request finally gets the attention and execution it deserves?

            It is a very basic requirement that would be expected from the beginning, a simple cname support link.

            For those who are looking for a solution: UseResponse did pretty well in the last few years. Their solution is a public forum, a helpdesk panel, a knowledge base and also a live chat solution all-in-one and they developed some quite nice features here – and multilingual / multi-domain is basic standard there. Actually we're checking out if a migration from Jira ServiceDesk to UseResponse could solve our problem here. And, of course, it includes a plugin for Jira / Confluence integration, so backend developement could stay in Jira, while User-Frontend is handled by UseResponse.

            Come on Atlassian team. This feature is not just about what customers are voting. It is about Atlassian prestige. I think that not all of your customers have the knowledge and skills to even implement a solution on masking servide desk url, but for those of us who really care about the best way and best practices to do things this is a very very important matter. Here at my company we have been customers for about 10 years now, we like your software, we like your solutions. They are great solutions, please, please solve this issue.

            Does your solution address the jira-side issue of generated links back to the support portal?  Sure we can set up a reverse proxy to point foo.bar.com to our Jira ServiceDesk Project 27... but when links are send out to respond to the issue, all the links point back to the main Jira Site, and our aforementioned Service Desk Project 27, which in reality doesn't solve anything at all.

             

            The goal is a complete and independent subdomain that's specifically for the particular service desk in question

            Hello, we are still in evaluation phase, however this feature is as many say - must have. Our current work-around is using Refined Theme for Jira Service Desk. But only helps with parts of our needs.

            Atlassian seems to ignore many important requests, delaying them for years, which is immensely frustrating.

            But we've stayed with JSD, moving all company departments to it, in spite of the limitations.  On server, we've also managed to implement support.ourdomain.com and kb.ourdomain.com without too much trouble.

            Any product you select will have it's pros and cons, we have decided that the pros outweigh the cons.

            We rolled out JSD to 2 of our customers then found out about all outstanding critical unresolved for years issues hence decided to give up on it / looking for alternatives.

            I assume at this point that most people have just given up on JSD. I know we have.

            I don't think Atlassian "get it" that information security is an issue for many of it's customers (actually all of it's customers but the rest don't yet realise it). I suspect this is because they live in an Agile bubble where everyone trusts each other. We will either have to use a different product that does include sub-domains and get a Jira connector, or hack something ugly ourselves.

            Yep, I got a reply to my rant about how bad it is stating Atlassian is taking every feedback very seriously etc. but facts are the opposite. It's a great system but we're simply being ignored and marketing profit making ideas are prioritised AKA "sell and ignore/forget".
