🚀 A Fresh Look: Homepage Redesign for Secure Custom Fields for Jira

[#1]

When managing dozens of secure custom fields across teams like HR, Legal, and Engineering and beyond — we know usability matters just as much as security.

We knew that our users needed to quickly see which secure custom fields existed, adjust settings on the fly, and onboard new admins without a steep learning curve. And they weren’t alone. As more teams adopt Secure Custom Fields for Jira, we saw a clear opportunity to enhance the user experience with a smarter, cleaner homepage.

This redesign is our answer.

🏗️ A Closer Look at the New Homepage

We redesigned the homepage to make secure custom field management faster, clearer, and more intuitive — especially for large teams juggling multiple projects and permissions. Here’s what’s new:

📍 Breadcrumb Navigation

Breadcrumbs now appear throughout the app, so users always know where they are and can navigate seamlessly between export/import, configuration, and Web API settings. This is especially helpful for admins working across multiple projects or onboarding new team members.

✅ Key Actions, Upfront

Essential actions like creating a new secure customer field or starting an import/export are now placed at the top of the page. This streamlines routine admin tasks and reduces time spent navigating menus.

🗂️ All Fields in a Single Table

Every secure custom field you’ve created is now displayed in a clean table on the homepage. From the table, users can instantly delete or edit any field, jumping straight into configurations. It’s the kind of small usability tweak that makes a big impact on daily workflows.

📎 Helpful Tips, Out of the Way (But Not Gone)

We moved helpful resources, release notes, and usage tips to a collapsible sidebar. You can expand it when you need guidance, or hide it to keep your workspace clean and focused.

🌱 Why It Matters

Our goal with Secure Custom Fields has always been to give teams full control over sensitive Jira data — without adding complexity. With this redesign, we’re making it easier to secure what matters, without slowing down.

Whether you’re just discovering Secure Custom Fields for Jira or already relying on it for compliance and access control, we hope this update improves your experience.

The redesigned homepage is live and ready for you to explore.
