      Notes

      This was previously reported as a Confluence bug here: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-41160

      Further testing though suggests that this is in fact a JIRA bug. Customer on ticket GHS-37438 experienced this issue after upgrading from JIRA 7.0 to 7.1.2 while Confluence was on 5.8.13. I tested this myself by installing Confluence 5.7.6 and testing and was able to replicate the problem while connected to JIRA 7.1.2

      Tested as well with Confluence 5.7.6 and JIRA 7.0 and was not able to replicate.

      Workaround

      No observed workaround at this time.
