What has changed?

With QMetry v8.5 and above, the issue syncing between QMetry - Jira happens through 'Jira Integration – QMetry Enterprise' App that gets installed on Jira; (read more). Until QMetry v8.4.x the issue syncing between QMetry - JIRA happened using Jira webhooks.

Details for change?

Post QMetry upgrade to 8.5.x the webhook created by QMetry older version is obsolete and need to be deleted.
