Mostly a technical release2.5.0 is a major version because there are major changes in terms of internal package names and build process, but it has few immediately-visible features. Our performance tests for Data Center show no visible impact for our changes, neither for Confluence nor Jira, so in theory all should go well. |

Since we've implemented the Jira bulk issue creation for requirements, we've seen issues for users who create more than 2,000 issues and want to keep them in sync.
A queue in Jira will allow us to reliably notify Confluence of changes (issue rename, issue move, etc).
The drawback is that it requires a username in Jira's administration.
Minor versions
RY 2.5.0 (both Confluence and Jira)
- Play SQL Issue Trackerc44f7f6b309d3e24ae45f50de66a98eb
- Play SQL Issue Trackerc44f7f6b309d3e24ae45f50de66a98eb (and RY-562) – This is the change which requires a username in Jira.
- Play SQL Issue Trackerc44f7f6b309d3e24ae45f50de66a98eb - We've changed the internal storage for saved traceability matrixes. They should be transferred automatically using a background job that runs 3 minutes after the plugin is installed; If they are not migrated automatically, you can click "Migrate now" in the traceability matrix dropdown.
- Play SQL Issue Trackerc44f7f6b309d3e24ae45f50de66a98eb - We've rerun the Data Center tests for Jira after adding the queue.
- Play SQL Issue Trackerc44f7f6b309d3e24ae45f50de66a98eb - In Jira, we've changed the storage we store connection information to Confluence (API version, username and whether we auto-upgrade).
- Play SQL Issue Trackerc44f7f6b309d3e24ae45f50de66a98eb - In Jira, we've made it easier to set the username for the authentication to Confluence. The ticket will remain "open" until we do the same in Confluence.
- Play SQL Issue Trackerc44f7f6b309d3e24ae45f50de66a98eb - In Jira, support values sent by RY Confluence for the "Components", "Labels", "Assignee" and similar complex fields, and support when they are "templated" (when a component is "{@a_property}", meaning the user wants to use a property of the requirements as a component name).
- Play SQL Issue Trackerc44f7f6b309d3e24ae45f50de66a98eb - In Jira, stop displaying the popup when hovering over a requirement key. Instead, display it when we click on the requirement, to avoid flashes of popups when a user is browsing the screen with their mouse.
- Play SQL Issue Trackerc44f7f6b309d3e24ae45f50de66a98eb - We've improved the in-code documentation so the REST API documentation displays nicely.
