Allow modification of Jira issues order/links in directly in Structure for Cloud
Currently when using automation to bring in issues and show the linked status they is no ability to update order or the link between other issues. Ideally issues could be reordered to identify priority or possibly even have their links modified when dragged to other hierarchies (similar to the status being changes when dragged on a KanBan Board)

Both requested features have been implemented! Now you can change Jira issue ranks and links by rearranging issues in your structures if you use the corresponding generators (Automation).

Just any way to order by structure-specific field would be useful. My use case is I'm trying to create a prioritized roadmap using generators. However, none of the existing Jira fields make sense for ordering items relative to each other. I think Rank would probably serve just fine. The ability to drag-and-drop to reorder is a nice-to-have.

Hello Heston,
An ability to change issue ranks via Structure is one of our top priority features and is already in progress. You could be familiar with it from Structure for Jira Server if you use the "Sort by Rank" Automation.
Also, I’d like to note that Manual Reordering is a different functionality that allows to manually change the order of items in a structure without affecting their ranks or any other Jira fields. This one is not available in the Cloud version for now. -

I'd also like the ability to manually re-order items added to a structure by a generator. This is present in Jira Server, but not Jira Cloud. Any update on when this might get addressed?
Specifically, the release notes say, "Coming Soon: Change Jira issue rank by rearranging issues in your structures." Has that shipped yet?

I'm pleased to inform you that now you can create, update or remove Jira links simply by rearranging issues within the structure.
