Can you export Jira data to automatically populate the Roadmap Planner Gadget?

Full disclosure: I’m part of the team behind the tool mentioned below. 

Hi Joni,

Unfortunately, you can't automatically sync or populate the native Roadmap Planner Gadget with live Jira data—it's strictly a static manual drawing tool, which means you're stuck rebuilding it by hand every time a ticket changes.

Since Jira Plans are out of the question due to your licensing constraints, we actually built Millarum Roadmap to solve this exact dilemma.

It acts as a dynamic alternative that addresses your needs perfectly:

• Populates Automatically from Jira: It completely skips the manual drawing. It pulls your live Jira data directly into a clean, one-page timeline.
• Epic & Project Swimlanes: It groups your work into clear visual swimlanes based on your Jira Projects, and maps your Epics (Features) seamlessly across them.
• No Extra Jira Licenses Needed for Viewers: This is the big one for your team. You can easily export the live roadmap as a PDF or PNG to share across the entire company, or simply embed the view so stakeholders can stay aligned without needing an active Jira seat.
• Direct Clickable Jira Links: Every Epic/Feature on the roadmap bar is an interactive link that takes licensed users directly back to the live Jira issue with one click.

It gives you the automation of a high-end planning tool but keeps the simplicity and shareability of a basic roadmap planner.

If you want to see if it fits your workflow, you can check it out on the Marketplace here: Millarum Roadmap

Hi @Joni Johnson ,

Just wanted to add an alternative worth considering, since it sounds like your main constraints are visibility for non-Jira users and a consistent look across teams.

One approach that could work here is using the Chart from Table macro from the Table Filter, Charts & Spreadsheets for Confluence app (please be aware that I'm with Stiltsoft, the team behind it) to build a Gantt chart that's driven by a Jira Issues macro.

The way it works: you embed a Jira Issues macro on your Confluence page to pull in your Epics/Features with their dates, and the Chart from Table macro reads that data to render a proper Gantt chart with milestones, progress bars, and task dependencies. Since it all lives on a Confluence page, anyone in your company can view it without needing a Jira license.

The clickable Jira links section is also covered: issue keys in the table remain linked to Jira, so anyone who has access can navigate directly from the roadmap.

The main difference from the Roadmap Planner is that it requires some initial setup of your data table structure, but once it's done, the chart updates automatically as your Jira data changes.

Hope this helps as an option to consider alongside the other suggestions!
