Configuration

The Configuration consists of five tabs:

  • Date and time formats

  • Work Time

  • Look and feel

  • Global Settings

  • Assets integration

 

The tabs Date and time formats and Look and feel allow an admin to set the default user settings for all new app users. The default settings can be later overridden by the users according to their needs, via User settings.

Starting app version 6.0, a new global app setting “No event message“ was added to the app configuration. It allows to manage a message display regarding an event disappearance, after the event was either created or edited.

For instance, in your calendar, you have a worklog source configured to display the worklogs that belong to user Barbara. You, then, created a worklog event for user John. Since user John is not added to the worklog source configuration, you’ll see a relevant message regarding the absence of the event on a calendar.

Please note that, starting the app version 6.1.0, there is a new setting called Work report for paused timer. Once enabled, the Log Work dialog will be shown to a user when a new timer was started when there was another timer still going on. More information regarding the setting is provided here.

 

Work Time

Starting with app version 9.1.x, a new Work Time tab has been added, allowing administrators to configure working and non-working days and manage yearly calendar settings.

The work time configuration covers three years — the current year and the next two years. When a new calendar is created, the current year is set as the default, with Monday to Friday defined as working days. For existing calendars, the current year is added automatically.

Jira admins can manage working and non-working days and their overrides for each year.

The Copy to Next Year feature allows administrators to transfer calendar settings from one year (the source year) to the next year (the target year).

It copies all working and non-working days from the source year.

If the target year already includes overrides, the settings are merged instead of being overwritten.

Global options

 

The app display in a project sidebar can be configured depending on business requirements.

Starting with app version 9.0.x:

  • Admins can disable calendar export to comply with security or data protection policies.

  • A new admin setting allows excluding non-Jira users from user suggestions, which is especially helpful for hiding Jira Service Management customers.

Assets integration

In the app version 6.0.x, the Assets integration was implemented. Now, Assets objects fields can be added to a source configuration, and used in reports.

Once the Assets integration is enabled by an admin, the app users will be available to configure the Assets objects fields for event display by adding the Assets objects fields to a source configuration.

In order to integrate the Assets objects fields, a single global token or multiple user tokens have to be generated.

If the option "User" is selected, each app user will have to generate a personal token, in User settings, via provided link.

Choose the option "Global predefined user", should you prefer the app users to operate with a single token generated by an admin.

Please note that in case a global token is used, it could be utilized by Jira users who are not granted the admin rights. As result, such users can cause unwanted changes in Jira. Therefore, if selecting the option "Global predefined user", you may want to generate a single token under a Jira user who has access to Insight but has no admin rights.
