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:
- Select multiple rows (checkbox or shift-select).
- Open bulk actions.
- 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.
