JQL Editor: “Syntax help” button not working in Forge apps

Hi,

When using the JQL Editor component inside a Forge Custom UI app, the “Syntax help” link does not work. Normally it should open Atlassian’s JQL documentation, but inside Forge the navigation is blocked by the iframe.

This creates a poor UX since users cannot access JQL syntax help directly.

My question:

  • Is there a way to make the link work correctly inside Forge apps?

  • If not, could any alternative mechanism be implemented that would fix the current behavior?

Thanks in advance for your guidance!
