December 2025
Backbone Work Sync 4.6.0 is now available. This release introduces the migration of epic link to parent link, support for setting a default value for the parent field, changes in the backbone attributes, and includes additional improvements and bug fixes.
Parent Field Migration and Default Value
Atlassian is moving away from the epic link and parent link fields to the parent field. Backbone now fully supports this transition, and your existing sync configurations have been automatically updated. Thus: no action is required on your part.
Besides that, you can also now configure a default value for the Parent field when setting up your syncs. Helping you structure your work items.
Updated Backbone Attribute Search
Due to technical reasons, we’ve updated our Backbone attributes that can be searched with JQL. Attribute names no longer contain dots. For example: backbone.RemoteKey → backboneRemoteKey.
If you use the attributes in your synchronization to limit which work items get synced, this is automatically updated. For other users, in e.g. other queries, please check it out as they will need to be updated.
