Project List has a limit of 50

[DanTitovTulip]

Our Jira instance has hundreds of projects and I am part of a group that has access to all of them.

When I try to use /jira subscribe only the first 50 projects are in the list, alphabetically. I am not able to scroll down to see the rest.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. /Jira connect in MM channel
2. /Jira subscribe in MM channel
3. Select "Project" dropdown
4. Scroll all the way to the end

Expected Result: I can see all of the projects I have access to.
Actual Result: The project list ends at 50 projects.

Impact: Currently the only workaround to this is to create more Jira user groups with specific project access. Most likely won't be using this feature until this is resolved.

Please let me know if there is a better workaround available.

I think I see the bug:

In client_cloud.go ListProjects: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-jira/blob/master/server/client_cloud.go#L110

When limit = -1 to trigger the "fetchAll" behaviour, the revenant code is

	remaining := 50
	...
	for {
		...
		if len(result.Values) > remaining {
			result.Values = result.Values[:remaining]
		}
		out = append(out, result.Values...)
		remaining -= len(result.Values)

		if !fetchAll && remaining == 0 {
			// Got enough.
			return out, nil
		}
		if len(result.Values) == 0 || result.IsLast {
			// Ran out of results.
			return out, nil
		}
	}

When fetchAll is true, remaining is still set to 50, and it still gets (a) used to truncate result.Values, and (b) decremented by len(result.Values). Which means that after the first pass through the loop, remaining will be set to 0, and on the second pass, it will request maxResults=0, result.Values will be truncated to 0 length, and it will hit the last if and return just the first 50 results.

Changing

		remaining -= len(result.Values)

		if !fetchAll && remaining == 0 {
			// Got enough.
			return out, nil
		}

to

		if !fetchAll {
			remaining -= len(result.Values)
			if remaining == 0 {
				// Got enough.
				return out, nil
			}
		}

such that remaining is never decremented when fetchAll is true should fix this, I think.

It's not only in the subscribe dialogue, it's also in the project dropdown when creating an issue. The limit is 50 there too and the autocomplete can only search through those 50 items.

A PR would be much appreciated 🙏

The Project Dropdown in either attaching message to jira issue or creating subscription is limited to 50 records

Possible solutions

• typing query should refresh list like in users dropdown
• more projects should be fetched initially

This is biting my team as well. It looks like a related MR has already been merged. Can we get an update on when a fix for this will roll out?

[cjonard]

Hello, do we have any more information? This fix is eagerly awaited by my team too.

Hello,

It's can we have an update on that issues ? It's becoming urgent among my organization too.

Hi,
Same here. An update or a fix would be nice. Thanks

[relwell]

Is this something we can please get taken care of soon? Even a hard-coded bump in the limit of projects would be a big help.
