Question about linking issues using URL #2891
Zak Siddiqui opened 4 days ago

When adding a link to an issue, currently, what is supported is the ability to add the link by issue number or using a text search. However, adding the link using the actual URL doesn't seem to be supported.

At least, I can confidently say that linking an issue using its URL where the issue is from a different project is definitely not supported.

Please confirm, and create an issue as a new improvement for linking issues.

    Confirmed: pasting a full issue URL is not supported when adding an issue link via Select Existing.

    What works today

    • Issue number or fuzzy text search in the current project
    • Cross-project selection via reference forms such as other/project#123 or KEY-123 (or the same prefixes followed by a text query)

    What does not work

    • Pasting a URL like https://<host>/<project/path>/~issues/<number> — including for issues in another project

    So your observation is correct for URL-based linking. Cross-project linking itself is already supported; you just need the project/path#number or KEY-number form rather than the browser URL.

    Opened improvement #2892 to track URL paste support, and linked it as related.

    Answered: URL paste is not supported for issue linking; follow-up tracked in #2892.

    @zaakiy link by url is odd. As the servicedesk mentioned, OneDev supports to input full reference to link to issues in other projects. Or you may define project key to get a short form of issue full reference.
