Can a JIRA Issue or Epic be a Compass Component?

[kevin_mcmahon]

*Brand new to Compass, but use JIRA in a mid-level capacity
TLDR: I need a pizza-tracker to follow JIRA issues across multiple teams (multiple issues aligned with a Compass component(?))

I am looking to find a pizza-tracker type utility that can integrate with JIRA to have an overview with dashboard for a set of issues and/or epics that will provide access for about 20 viewers and ~50 "users". It seems like Compass can basically do what I need (not using as intended) other than I am not sure if issues/stories/epics can be treated as a Component that can be tracked in the way I am intending. Or is there another means of tracking multiple JIRA issues that need to pass between teams with a RAG & % type progress dashboard like Compass has?

Sounds like you need an Atlas Platform project, which you can create by going to https://home.atlassian.com, hitting the Create dropdown at the top, then selecting Project. You can link the various Jira work items to it, add your various viewers/users to it, post status updates, risks, etc. (I am not talking about a Jira project. The overloading of the term "project" within the Atlassian ecosystem is in an awkward phase right now.)
