Upgrading to 2.6.0

Following extra actions are required only if:

• The connector is used for linking Jira issues with ELM ^[1] artifacts using Global Configurations.
• An upgrade from ELM 7.0.1 (or lower) to 7.0.2 (or higher) was performed.

A change in the way how backlinks are discovered, in ELM 7.0.2, requires a synchronization between Jira Versions and ELM Global Configurations.

For each Jira project associated with ELM projects using Global Configurations:

1. Enter to the project's Global Configuration admin page.
2. Follow the steps of the Synchronizing Associations By Friend Application procedure to ensure all ELM backlinks are available.
