The review and install step lists everything the app asks for before the trial starts.

#Why it happens

The app requests manage:jira-webhook, manage:jira-project and manage:jira-configuration at install even though the released Jira surfaces contain no webhook code path.

#A few things that catch people out

  • The app requests manage:jira-webhook, manage:jira-project and manage:jira-configuration at install, which admins will see, although the released Jira surfaces contain no webhook code path.

  • Permission enforcement is app-managed, so newly requested permissions ship to all installs immediately and sit pending admin approval rather than blocking the install.

  • Only the upgrade event performs the registration on the Jira side.

Found it? Good.
