Where did the search button go in the new Jira Align?
The pages and room search is not currently in the new navigation. Instead, the new navigation will remember the team rooms where you’ve been in Jira Align and place those rooms on your homepage when you first log in. Additionally you can click the ‘star’ on each page to save that page so that when you log in you can see that page immediately.
