eSign supports several types of operations that can be applied to multiple Jira issues at the same time. Bulk Operations are accessed from the standard Jira Advanced Search page.

Notes and Limitations

• Each Bulk Operation can only span a single project at a time. If the advanced search result includes more than 1 project, only issues in the first project will be selected.

• There is a limit on how many issues can be processed in a single session; if the search returns more results only the first X will be selectable.

• The Bulk Operations search will respect the advanced search current page. ie viewing page 2 of an advanced search will show the issues on page 2 for selection.

Bulk Signature Invite

The Bulk Invite form requires the same information as the single issue Invite form. For scope confirmation the Issue count and list will be displayed.

After completing the invite and pressing Start will initiate a server-side invite process. The processing Log will show updated progress.

For the final step the eSign server will send the users a consolidated single e-mail notification message about the new invites including Invitees, Notes and Issues in scope to sign.

Notes and Limitations

• Bulk Invite is only available to users who have permission to create Signature Invites individually for the project in scope, as per the eSign Project Settings.

Process
