• Added -Id parameter to Remove-JiraFilter (#288, [@lipkau[]])

    be used in scenarios like Get-Content "listOfFilter.txt | Remover-JiraFilter
• Changed logic of Get-JiraUser to return multiple results for a search (#272, [@lipkau[]])
  • Get-JiraUser was hard-coded to return only one result, while the API can return multiple results
  • added parameter (-MaxResults, -Skip) to influence the results of the API
  • API has a limitation of 1000 items in response
• Added posts for homepage to the module’s repository (#268, [@lipkau[]])
  • by maintaining the posts of the homepage in the module’s repository, the new version of the
    module can be deployed without manual changes to the homepage (thanks to #259 mentioned bellow)
• Improved handling of Credentials (#271, [@lipkau[]])
  • added an empty [Credential] object as default value
  • -Credential "Username" now uses the [String] as value for the Username in the Credentials dialog

BUG FIXES

• Reverted Add-JiraIssueAttachment as JiraPS v2.7 broke it (#287, [@lipkau[]])
  • JiraPS v2.7 tried to move the logic for generating the multipart/form-data to Invoke-WebRequest
  • this is still desired, but as it broke the functionality of Add-JiraIssueAttachment,
    this was rolled-back
  • shall be fixed/re-implemented with #284
• Fixed resolving of Remote Link (#286, [@lipkau[]])
  • function was using the wrong private function for converting the response to custom object
• Improved error handling for ErrorDetails and non-JSON/HTML responses (#277, [@hmmwhatsthisdo[]])
• Fully support Powershell v3 (#273, [@lipkau[]])
• Fixed parameter used in documentation but not in code (#263, [@lipkau[]])
  • added alias -Issue to Get-JiraIssue -Key as the documentation used it
  • updated documentation to use the -Key parameter

Full list of issues can be found in Milestone v2.8.
