Hi folks!

We are currently working on transferring our Connect app to Forge platform and we’ve encountered a problem.

Our Connect app has a feature to allow user to choose where the app data is displayed: in left panel (issue glance) or right in the jira panel section (a button near “attach”, “create subtask” and “link issue”). User can choose one of 2 options in App Properties and then it is displayed in a place specified by the user.

In Connect is was implemented with conditions-\>expressions (app.properties), but I am not sure how to implement this feature with Forge and it’s display condition. Is it even possible?

Welcome to the Atlassian Developer Community, @ayur !

Forge display conditions currently do not support app properties. However, there is an existing feature suggestion to help address this use case and it can be tracked [here](https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/FRGE-582).

For your appreciation, other Forge-Connect modules equivalents can be seen in [Jira Cloud extensibility update - March 2022](https://community.developer.atlassian.com/t/jira-cloud-extensibility-update-march-2022/56314).

Cheers,  
Ian

Hello, Ian.

I looked through the issue you’ve linked, thanks a lot. Is there any approximate date or period set for this feature so we could plan on upgrading the app once it’s out?

Best wishes,  
Maria.
