Edit issues

Update issue properties, description, and assignments from issue detail.

Edit issues

Open any issue at /issues/{id} to view and edit its properties. Most changes save inline without a separate edit mode.

Inline properties

The issue sidebar and header expose editable fields:

  • Title — click to rename
  • Status — workflow column; drag on board views instead when convenient
  • Assignee and delegate
  • Priority, labels, estimate, due date
  • Project, milestone, cycle, release
  • Team — moving teams may reset labels or workflow

Permission checks apply per field — you may edit your own issues but not others' without update access.

Description and documents

Edit the issue description in the main panel using the rich-text editor. Attach or create documents linked to the issue from the documents section when your team uses specs alongside the description.

Bulk edit

From issue lists:

  1. Select multiple rows (checkbox or shift-select).
  2. Open bulk actions.
  3. Set status, assignee, priority, labels, cycle, or other supported fields once for the selection.

Bulk edit respects the same permissions as single-issue updates.

Keyboard shortcuts

  • E — focus title on detail (where enabled)
  • F — filters on list pages, not on detail
  • ⌘K / Ctrl+K — command menu for navigation and create actions

Automations

When development links are configured, merging a linked merge request may move issue status automatically — see team settings under Issue statuses & automations.
