You can't delete the New and Fixed statuses or change their categories.

To delete a status, follow these steps:

  1. Select the delete button (Delete) in the status row.
  2. In the window that opens, confirm the status deletion.
caution

Before deleting a status, the system checks for security issues associated with the status.

If the system finds at least one security issue associated with the status, change the status of that issue. Also, if the status is associated with at least one status transition, confirm that you want to remove the status from the associated transitions and delete the transitions where the status is the only value in the From and To fields, because the transition can't exist without this status.

If the status isn't critical in the transitions, the system won't delete those transitions.

  1. Select Confirm and delete.
caution

The system deletes statuses asynchronously. The deletion time depends on the number of security issues associated with the status.

Importing and exporting status model parameters​

System users can import and export the status model configuration.

To import a configuration, upload the prepared configuration into the current configuration. The current settings won't be changed or deleted.

The system also includes configuration presets for statuses and transitions.

To import a configuration, use a JSON file with the following structure:

{
"statuses": [
{
"key": "string",
"name": "string",
"description": "string",
"category": "string ('open' | 'closed')",
"color": "string (HEX code)",
"universal_transition": "boolean"
}
],
"transitions": [
{
"name": "string",
"description": "string",
"groups": [
"string"
],
"from_statuses_keys": [
"string (key)"
],
"to_statuses_keys": [
"string (key)"
],
"show_description_in_select": "boolean"
}
]
}

The system exports the complete configuration in JSON format.
