Backbone Issue Sync 5.10.0
July 2024
The Backbone team is pleased to introduce Backbone Issue Sync 5.10.0.
This release includes the support of Jira 9.13 and up as well as some bug fixes.
Support of Jira 9.13 and up
Due to changes in the new Jira versions, we had to make some changes to make sure the behind firewall synchronizations would keep working. To do that, we’ve created a new Backbone version. Therefore, there are now the following three versions:
5.10.0-Pre85
5.10.0-85to912
5.10.0
The right version should be picked automatically, but to get an overview of which version you should use:
Jira Version | Backbone Version (example with 5.10.0) |
|---|---|
8.4.x and below | 5.10.0-pre85 |
8.5.0 - 8.5.3, 8.6.0, 8.6.1, 8.7.0, 8.7.1 | 5.10.0-pre85 |
8.5.4, 8.7.2 (and higher patch version) | 5.10.0-85to912 |
8.8.0 - 9.12.x | 5.10.0-85to912 |
9.13 and higher | 5.10.0 |
Behind Firewall Email Exchange Google/Outlook Deprecation
Backbone Issue Sync will no longer support email exchange for Gmail and Exchange Online due to the disabling of basic authentication. Backbone won’t be able to connect to these email services. This will be in affect by the following dates:
Google/Gmail: starting September 30, 2024.
Exchange Online: already in place since December 31, 2022.
To still make use of the behind firewall setup, you will need to either switch to another email provider or use the file-based synchronization.
