atlassian cloud changes Atlassian Cloud changes Jan 13 to Jan 20, 2020
©Jimi Wikman posted an article in Atlassian
This is a repost from Atlassian's blog where the latest updates to the Atlassian cloud platform is posted. It is reposted here since the Atlassian blog does not have an RSS feed and so we can discuss the changes to the Atlassian Cloud architecture. You can follow these posts withe the tag "atlassian cloud changes". Atlassian Cloud Your cloud-hosted products are supported by the Atlassian Cloud platform. This section usually includes changes related to multiple Atlassian Cloud products, site administration, and user management. Email users with suggested account changes From the Change details button, you can suggest that a user changes their account details to make their profile more consistent and easier to identify. Read more about administering Atlassian accounts. Give your users a Trusted permission From a user's Permission options, select Trusted to give certain users more responsibility. These users will be able to install and configure new products on your site and invite new users themselves. Claim accounts after verifying a domain To start managing accounts on your domain, we’ve included an additional step that requires you to claim accounts after verifying that you own the domain. From the table on the Domains page, click Claim accounts next to the verified domain. Read more about verifying a domain. Set your language and time zone for Jira and Confluence in your Atlassian account profile Rather than individually setting your language and time zone in Jira and Confluence, these preferences will soon come from your Atlassian account profile. Visit your account preferences to update these settings. It may take up to 10 mins before your updated preferences are reflected in Jira and Confluence. Jira platform Changes in this section usually apply to all Jira products. We'll tell you in the change description if something is only for a specific Jira product. New issue view: Print an issue or export it to Microsoft Word or XML Print or export individual issues in the new issue view. Open an issue and choose more actions (•••) at the top-right to print it or export it to Microsoft Word (DOC) or XML format. Changing the "Issues and filters" navigation item to "Filters" In preparation for the rollout of our improved navigation for Jira Cloud, we've updated the "Issues and filters" menu item in the Jira sidebar to simply be "Filters." When we move to the new horizontal navigation, this name will better reflect what you'll find in the menu—filters, filters, and more filters. This is purely a label change at this point, and won't change any functionality. New user profile cards When you hover over someone’s name in directories, on dashboards, and in user picker fields, you’ll now start to see rich profile cards with more information and a link to the user’s profile (if you have permission to see it). Next-gen: Epic panel in backlog You can now manage epics on the backlog of your next-gen project via the Epics panel, similar to how epic management works in classic Jira Software projects. Changes you make in the panel on the backlog will reflect on the Roadmap, and vice-versa. Advanced search (JQL): Search for content updated by a specific user Use the updatedBy() function to search for issues that were updated by a specific user, optionally within the specified time range. For example, if you want to find issues updated by John Smith between June and September 2018, enter issuekey IN updatedBy(jsmith, "2018/06/01", "2018/08/31"). Read more about the updatedBy() function. Jira Software We're rolling out a new type of project known as next-gen. By default, any Jira Software licensed user can create their own next-gen project. These projects don't affect existing Jira projects, shared configurations, or your schemes. You can manage who's allowed to create next-gen projects with the new Create independent projects global permission. Read more about next-gen projects. GitHub app on the Atlassian Marketplace We've partnered with GitHub to build a new and improved integration, which you can install at the Atlassian Marketplace. This replaces the DVCS connector in Jira's system settings. Current GitHub integrations set up under the old method will continue to work, but new integrations must be set up using the app on the Atlassian Marketplace. We're rolling out this update gradually, so it may not be on your Jira Cloud site yet. This won't affect GitHub Enterprise integrations, which must still be set up via the DVCS connector. Next-gen: Roadmap issue hierarchy You can now expand an epic on your roadmap to see its child issues and their statuses. Learn more about managing epics on the roadmap. Next-gen: Create child issues on your roadmap You can now add child issues directly on your roadmap. Just hover over an epic, click the + icon, and give your issue a name.

We also introduced a new layout that is easier to use on mobile devices. Go team! Easier configuration for the new issue view If you have the new issue view, you can now easily configure how your issue view looks for each request type. From your service desk project, go to Project settings > Request types and you'll find the new layout for making changes. Next-gen projects: Approve or decline requests You can now add an approval stage to requests that should be approved before they’re resolved in next-gen projects. If a request has an approval stage, approvers can approve or decline the request from the issue view. Add an approval stage to a workflow by going to Project settings > Request types and then clicking Edit workflow. Learn more Global create can select request type and raise on behalf of You can now create a request on behalf of your customers and set them as the reporter. Use the global create button ( + ), then select Raise this request on behalf of and add in your customer's email.

Large backlogs load faster Big backlogs can take time to load, and teams usually work with a small chunk of the issues at a time. Knowing this and striving to make backlogs render faster, we've changed the default to display only 100 issues (90 from the top and 10 from the bottom) from your backlog. The remaining issues will be displayed if you click Show all issues. We've also introduced a number of backend changes that resulted in faster initial loading. Jira Service Desk Issues with the customer organizations field now use the organization name instead of ID when exporting to CSV When exporting Jira issues to CSV from the Jira Issue Navigator, the Custom field (Organizations) now contains the name of the organizations linked to the issue.

roadmap 3 new features for Jira Software Cloud's roadmap
©Jimi Wikman posted an article in Atlassian
The Roadmap feature in Jira Cloud's NextGen projects is getting three new features. While all good additions, the question still remain who these new features are for and to what extent these new features will make people move over to NextGen projects. NextGen for Jira Cloud is in a strange place as it is not really defined what is can and should be used for. The Roadmap feature is in a similar place as it fall somewhere between Portfolio for Jira and the Roadmap planner macro in Confluence. These 3 new features are an improvement and a good indication on where Atlassian are going. The question is just how fast these new features are coming out and if it appeal to the target audience. Drill down into the details The first feature is the ability to open up the Epic and see the underlying tasks. This is a much needed feature that was heavily requested and also one I spoke with Atlassian about earlier this fall. This is a good feature and a good step to improve the roadmap, but is still in need of further refinement. We still only have Epics as the starting point, which will limit the use of Roadmaps. Opening up the subtasks will only show their status at the moment, which is useful, but not what many want. Many still want a Gant view where the sum of the subtasks should make up the time in the Epic. This is not possible at the moment and I find it interesting that Atlassian has chosen to follow an Agile first approach to the Roadmaps, which means it will not be very useful for the majority of the companies using Atlassian's products today. Add new tasks directly in the Roadmap Another great feature that was much requested is the ability to create new sub tasks directly in the Roadmap. This way we can build up a full stack of tasks for a project in one view, which is excellent for portfolio and project planning purposes. The fact that we do not get full Gantt view for the sub tasks makes this a little less useful for time and resource planning however. Filter your Epics and Tasks The ability to use different filters is a must for any Portfolio, but even roadmaps benefit from filtering options. In this release we get the filters for issue status and assignee, which is a good start. I would like to see some more filters like dependencies and of course issues that are behind the time schedule. The question is just who this Roadmap feature is for though as then we are moving more into project management and Portfolio management and Atlassian has previously stated that the Roadmap is for teams. It's a good start, but... I am still not sure where NextGen projects are heading, which means it's hard to say if the features are great or poor. We know that Roadmaps will be ported over to the Classic project types as well, but that will make things even more confusing. This is unfortunately a common issue with Atlassian as they are getting more and more fractured with no clear indication on structure or strategy. Roadmaps for me is something that should stay as a team tool for small teams to give an overview of the current work. To cater to that need Roadmaps could benefit from a few changes. The first would be to change the basic structure and allow the view to be in any level. That means that I should be able to use Stories rather than Epics as Epics are just containers and not work tasks. The majority of issues are not connected to Epics in most teams, especially if you work in a Kanban setting for continuous improvements for example. The second would be to go full gantt, or rather to give the option to go full gantt. Not every team need or will use estimation in issues, but most do. Without a full gantt the view of issues will not be as useful as a progress overview tool. It's like saying that I have a container of a certain size and in that container I have put five items. On the question if the items will fit my only answerr will be "I don't know", which is in many organizations not an acceptable answer. The third would be to add dependencies on issues and not just on Epics and extend the data to also show data from other projects. In most organizations dependencies are not within the team itself, but to surrounding teams. Even if the view is for the team it makes sense that I should be able to see what other teams could be affected. The fourth would be to ensure that Roadmaps becomes a granular part of a larger view. Right now it is an isolated feature, which means that we will have different data for different levels of the organization. This will lead to miscommunication within the organization as teams will say Epics, which will mean something very different to Program managers and Portfolio managers and so on. As more and more organization add SAFe to their processes it is important that the team view is part of the greater whole. I am sure we will so many great additions to Roadmaps in 2020 and hopefully many of the questions we have regarding Roadmaps and NextGen projects will get answers then. Until then these three new features are welcome additions that I am sure will help many teams improve their work processes. -

atlassian Atlassian Launches free tiers for all cloud products
©Jimi Wikman posted an article in Atlassian
Atlassian has announced that a free tier for all of the company’s services that didn’t already offer one is coming. Atlassian now also offers discounted cloud pricing for academic institutions and nonprofit organizations. This is great for smaller companies that want to upgrade from the popular Trello platform, which is also owned by Atlassian. Jira Software, Confluence, Jira Service Desk and Jira Core will get free tiers in the coming months. Exactly what the limits will be on these free tiers is yet to be seen, but it is safe to assume that the current 10 user tier that is the entry level will probably be free. In addition to this we will also see an extension of the trial version which is very short today. This allow companies to better evaluate before committing to a purchase. "We’re announcing free plans of Jira Software, Confluence, Jira Service Desk, and Jira Core – available in the coming months. This adds to the existing free offerings already in place for Trello, Bitbucket, and Opsgenie to give teams of all sizes, even small ones, a set of fundamental capabilities for team collaboration." - Reaching new heights in the cloud For me this is great news as it allow many smaller companies to get introduced to Jira. This allow Jira to organically become a foundation of the workflow as the companies grow. This should multiply the use of Jira quite a bit, especially with the new next-gen features that are very similar to Trello. I like this move quite a bit and I look forward to hearing more about this as the new tiers are published. In addition to this they also talk about their Cloud Premium offer and the new discount offer for academic and non-profit organizations.- 1 comment
