Atlassian reintroduces minor updates for large Connect-to-Forge apps
Atlassian is lifting the temporary forced-major-version rule for Connect-to-Forge apps with more than 50,000 users on an app-by-app rollout.
Previous state
Every update for affected large apps was forced into a major version and bulk-upgrade path.
Current state
Atlassian is restoring minor-update handling after notifying each affected partner; controlled bulk upgrade remains available.
Affected users
Who needs to care
Connect-to-Forge apps with more than 50,000 users.
Required response
What to do
Wait for app-specific notice, retest versioning behaviour and retain bulk-upgrade controls where needed.
Evidence boundary
What the source does not prove
The restriction is not lifted for every app simultaneously; partner contact defines the bounded rollout.
