Backbone Issue Sync 5.9.0
November 2023
The Backbone team is pleased to introduce Backbone Issue Sync 5.9.0.
This release includes an improvement for the sync info panel by introducing a copy issue link function. A new advanced option allows you to sync @mentions to a display name and a new field mapping is available: priority to text field. And finally, several bug fixes, including the correlation mappings that weren’t saved properly.
Improved Copy Functionality for Synced Issue Links
Copying the synced issue link within the sync info panel is now easier than ever! A copy link button will pop up next to the issue link when you hover over it, and you can copy the link by clicking on the button.

Sync @Mentions to Display Names
Want to sync users mentions across Jira projects, but the users names are not identical or don’t exist on the other project? No worries, you can now transform @mentions to text-based display names when syncing comments or other fields. You can activate this option in the advanced settings under sync.useDisplayNameUserMentions.
