What you are seeing

There is no way to restrict who can add Markdown, turn diagram languages on or off, point diagrams at our own renderer, or manage approved domains.

#Why it happens

These are not configurable in the Jira edition. Control access through normal Jira issue and attachment permissions instead.

Background job time budget

25 seconds

#A few things that catch people out

  • Logged-out and anonymous users never see either surface; there is no anonymous or unlicensed read-only mode.

  • There is no admin or project-level configuration at all: no access restrictions, no diagram-language toggles, no self-hosted renderer setting, no approved-domain management.

Found it? Good.
