Merge Labels
This tutorial provides a step-by-step guide on how to merge labels using the Label Enhancer for JIRA.
1. Merging Labels
1.1. Prerequisites
Confirm that at least two labels exist to merge.
Navigate to the project's Label Operation’s page.
1.2. How to Merge Labels
Access the Label Manager:
Navigate to your Jira project.
In the project sidebar, locate and click on Label Enhancer for JIRA.
Select Labels to Merge:
In the Label Operation, you'll see a list of existing labels.
Use the checkboxes next to each label to select the labels you intend to merge.
Initiate the Merging Process:
After selecting the desired labels, click the Merge button located at the top of the label list.
Confirm and Edit the New Label:
A merge modal will appear.
In the modal, you'll find a field to input the new label name that will replace the merged labels.
Enter the desired name for the new merged label.
Complete the Merge:
Click on the Merge button within the modal to proceed.
Completion:
Upon successful merging, you'll be redirected to the bulk operation progress page.
A success message will confirm that the selected labels have been successfully merged.
1.3. Constraints
Ensure the labels selected for merging and the new label name are accurate before proceeding.
If you lack the necessary permissions, contact your project administrator.
1.4. Potential Issues
Insufficient Permissions: If you encounter a permission error, verify your access rights or consult with your project administrator.
Non-existent Labels: Attempting to merge labels that don't exist or have already been removed will result in an error. Refresh the Label Enhancer for JIRA to view the current list of labels.
1.5. Understanding the Bulk Operation Progress modal
This page displays the status of ongoing bulk operations, including details such as the type of operation, progress, and any encountered issues.
It allows administrators to monitor and view bulk operations effectively, ensuring that label changes are applied globally as intended.
By following these steps, you can efficiently merge labels within your Jira project using the Label Enhancer for JIRA app.
