Control which Jira spaces can use Vansah from the workspace’s Configure screen. Use the default behavior and the space selection list together to turn Vansah on or off where your teams need it.
Before you begin
Sign in as a Jira administrator. Jira space administration alone is not sufficient for this workspace setting.
Confirm the Jira site and the space keys you want to change.
Review the current mode and selected spaces before making a change.
This setting changes Vansah availability. It does not uninstall Vansah or delete the existing Test Cases and Test Runs.
1. Open Configure
In Jira, open Apps → Vansah.
Select Configure.
Find Default behaviour and check the selected mode.
The screen uses the label Default behaviour. Choose the mode that fits how you want to make Vansah available:
Mode | Space list | How to use it |
Enabled by default | Excluded spaces | Keep Vansah available by default and select the spaces where it should be off. |
Disabled by default | Included spaces | Keep Vansah off for new, unconfigured spaces and select the spaces where it should be available. |
Changing the default does not clear the existing space choices. Review the active list after changing modes; do not assume every current space has been switched.
2. Disable Vansah in a space
Current mode | Action |
Enabled by default | Add the space to Excluded spaces. |
Disabled by default | Remove the space from Included spaces. |
Use the space picker to add or remove the intended space. Check its key before making the selection.
Wait for the success message. Space selections save immediately.
Reopen Configure and verify the saved list.
Refresh the affected Jira space and check Vansah’s availability.
Repeat for other spaces as needed, allowing each save to complete.
3. Re-enable Vansah in a space
Current mode | Action |
Enabled by default | Remove the space from Excluded spaces using the remove control on its selected tag. |
Disabled by default | Add the space to Included spaces. |
Wait for the success message, reopen Configure to verify the list, then refresh the Jira space and check that the intended users can access Vansah. Existing Jira and Vansah permissions still apply.
Change the default for new spaces
Select Enabled by default or Disabled by default.
Review the Update default behaviour confirmation.
Select Confirm to apply the mode.
Wait for the save to finish, then review Excluded spaces or Included spaces and adjust the selections to match your rollout.
Verify both an enabled space and a disabled space.
For a gradual rollout, use Disabled by default and carefully review Included spaces. Keep only the spaces you intend to enable in that list.
Troubleshoot space availability
Issue | What to check |
Configure is unavailable | Confirm that you are signed in as a Jira administrator on the correct Jira site. |
A change did not stay saved | Reopen Configure, check the selected mode and list, and read any reported error. Wait for each save before making another selection. |
A newly opened space is still disabled | Reopen Configure after the first visit and check its saved inclusion or exclusion. Ask your administrator to investigate if the selection does not remain as intended. |
Vansah is enabled but a user cannot open it | Check the user’s Jira site/space access and Vansah viewing permissions. Availability and user permission are separate settings. |
Only some spaces changed | Check the active selection list. Changing the default retains existing choices; add or remove each space that needs a different setting. |
