[feature]: vanity url for Issues
Is there an existing issue for this?
- [X] I have searched the existing issues
Summary
Having unique "vanity" url for each Issue that references the Issue's no.,
i.e. https://url-to-plane.tld/issues/{issue_no} where issue_no is {identifier}-{sequence_id}.
For example,
https://url-to-plane.tld/issues/AB-123
gets translated to
https://url-to-plane.tld/workspace/projects/{uuid}/issues/{uuid}.
Why should this be worked on?
Having vanity urls for issues opens up a new set of use cases, for example blow:
GitHub introduced "Autolink Reference" integration where references in GitHub pull request, issues and commits can be converted to non-Github links.
For example, when user references a plane issue no. below:
plane#AB-123
gets converted to
https://url-to-plane.tld/issues/AB-123
The problem is the current URL uses UUID, https://url-to-plane.tld/workspace/projects/{project_uuid}/issues/{issue_uuid}, made it not possible for such use case above.
This would be great, especially for published projects so that they are "prettier" to our customers.
+1 this has two benefits in my view: 1) shorter URLs are neater/easier to share or reference in docs, 2) automatic GitHub issue linking is possible.
Jumping in to say this would be awesome!
~It would also be super cool if we could have auto linking similar to Github (as demonstrated by the comment above this one).~ Edit; Looks like that feature request exists and is tracked as #1582
This is a must to be able to link to issues from third-party systems based on the project identifier + sequence_id of an issue. Please add this simple redirect feature to make our lives easier :)
