Edit existing servers

In the list of known servers, each server has a connected edit button. Clicking the Edit button brings up the edit dialog for the server, allowing you to change the details for the selected server

Delete (disconnect) existing servers

Deleting a server from the admin interface does not actually delete the server, but it deletes Jira's knowledge of the server. Since this is a destructive operation, our plugin will ask for confirmation that you're sure you want to do this.

Jira Manage apps - Delete server confirmation

You will not be allowed to delete a server that has toggles connected to issues, instead you'll receive a warning dialog telling you that you'll need to disconnect the toggles from their issues first.
