Disable keyboard shortcuts for Jira and Confluence

Keyboard "shortcuts" are enabled by default for Atlassian products, and they're extremely annoying.

Quick way disable keyboard shortcuts for Jira:

  • Type ? (Question mark)
  • Toggle the switch

Another way to enable/disable keyboard shortcuts for Jira:

  • Open a ticket, for example https://YOURCOMPANY.atlassian.net/browse/FOO-1234
  • Click the three dots ... in the top right of the page (or type Ctrl-K) to open the command palette
  • Type "keyboard" to search for the keyboard shortcuts page, click it
  • Toggle the "Keyboard shortcuts are enabled" switch in the top right

To disable keyboard shortcuts for Confluence:

  • Go to https://YOURCOMPANY.atlassian.net/wiki/users/viewmysettings.action
  • Click Edit
  • Uncheck Keyboard Shortcuts | Enable
