FAQ

Where are my linked events stored?

Your Google events remain in Google Calendar. Connectors for Jira only stores a link between your events and your Jira issues.

If I unlink an event from Jira, will it also delete it from Google Calendar?

Unlinking an event won’t automatically delete it from Google Calendar. If you have the right permissions in the event’s calendar, you will have the option to delete the event while unlinking it. If you don’t delete the event, it will remain in Google Calendar but will stop appearing in the issue.

Can everyone in our Jira instance access my linked events?

A user’s Google account needs to have access to the event’s calendar to be able to see the linked events.

Can I edit other people’s events?

Where is the integration’s data stored?

Links are stored in issue properties. See the Stored Data section of our Security Statement page for more information.
