Issue statuses

An issue status displays issue progress in the project.

If projects are connected, issue statuses will be automatically synchronized with Hive project.

Default issue statuses

Default Issue statuses are available for all Apiary projects:

  • New issue — a new issue that is sent from Hive;
  • Retest required — an issue was fixed. Additional tests are required to check if a vulnerability was closed. This status is sent to Hive;
  • Fix confirmed — an issue was fixed. Issue with this status is automatically sent from Hive;
  • Fix not confirmed — an issue was not fixed. Issue with this status is automatically sent from Hive;
  • outgoing issue status — issue status with this icon is automatically sent to Hive;
  • incoming issue status — issue status with this icon is automatically sent from Hive.

Note: issue statuses are unidirectional. For example, if you change incoming status on Apiary, issue status will not change on Hive.

Custom issue statuses

Project owner and platform administrator can also create custom issue statuses.

Custom issue statuses in Apiary can be synchronized with Jira (see section Integration).

Note: custom issue statuses are not synchronized between Hive and Apiary.

There are two types of custom statuses:

  • Project issue status — available only to the selected project and is not applied to the other Platform projects.
  • Global issue status — available for all new projects in the platform and is not applied to the old projects.
