📣 Feature update: Hierarchies in Jira Product Discovery

[Audrey Sebbane]

hello there ! Just activated the feature to start testing it ! :)

Although, I am not 100% sure, the tree view is not yet released right?

thanks in advance !

[Tanguy Crusson]

@Audrey Sebbane correct: not released yet

[dtidmas]

Thank you for shipping this feature, didn't realise how sorely we were missing it until we started organising our ideas into hierarchy (Goal > Opportunity > Idea). 

Thanks!

[Lisa McCann]

@Tanguy Crusson Hello! 

QQs: 

• Does this hierarchy approach solve the validation and feasibility work tracking? 
• Is Goals a paid for feature/app? :(

[Tanguy Crusson]

@Lisa McCann You could use this feature for things like this (e.g. a "discovery work" type)

Goals is part of the Atlassian platform (home.atlassian.com/goals), it's free

Hi @Tanguy Crusson, when the tree view lands, will it have support for multiple levels of opportunities and solutions for teams who work with Opportunity Solution Trees? The connection fields work well today but we are struggling to show multi-level relationships.

For example, if a parent opportunity has a child opportunity and solution is connected to the child opportunity, then the solution should also be visible in the Connections tab of the parent opportunity without having to explicitly connect everything.

Thank you JPD Team and @Tanguy Crusson 
This is really big and it opens up so many opportunities and new ways to use JPD. 

I'm just working with a client that evaluates moving from Product Board to JPD. One of the biggest things that we need to think there is how we deal with insights. In (their) Product Board they have one central place for all their insights that they can link to multiple ideas. In JPD its the other way round and you need to copy them if you want to use that Multiple times. 

But with this new Feature you could just make insights a new Work type and then Link these together. Sure impact isn't trackable then, but did you have used that somewhere?

Also we're thinking to use that to link to customers, and with that split that into customer segments. 
Are you guys planing to use Mirror fields, as in to Show the customer Segment from the customer WT in the linked Idea?

But this is very promissing, and I'm excited how this develops further.

[Tanguy Crusson]

@Kevin Hoffman that's a limitation/challenge with the model we went with and we're discussing options to best address it 👍

@Antal Vig _ Communardo We're keen to hear back what you find out if you try that out - I've tried myself and am not sold that it will quite cut it for an insights solution, but it was only a very quick exploration. For Mirror fields: not sure how we'll handle that part. I think that's related to Kevin's question too actually.

[Antal Vig _ Communardo]

Thanks @Tanguy Crusson 
I'll let you know, But so far it works alright. 

With the Mirror fields I'm unsure myself, maybe I'm thinking too much like I did in monday.co. I will let that thought ripe a bit. 

Btw next week I drop a video about this new feature on Linkedin. ;)

@Tanguy Crusson Maybe a quick follow-up question about the point Kevin raised regarding multi-level support.

While I'm (so far) not too worried about multiple layers of sub-items showing up in the Connection tab, I'd be curious to know if the plan for the tree-view is to visualize more than the 3 levels of hierarchy that are currently available? For example, would the tree view be able to show the breakdown of (Goal) > Opportunity > Sub-Opportunity > Solution > Experiment?

Totally get that you might not be able to commit to anything on this just yet.

[Tanguy Crusson]

@Mirko Grahnert long story short: we don't know yet. what's your hierarchy?

[Mirko Grahnert]

Fair enough, thanks @Tanguy Crusson. The specific hierarchy varies slightly from team to team, but in most cases it will look something like this:

1. (Atlas Goal)
2. Opportunity
3. Sub-Opportunity
4. Solution
5. Experiment

Hi @Tanguy Crusson ,

The feature looks great but can not be deployed on client site because of security issues. Security refuses to deploy any "beta" feature.

When can we expect the feature to be released in the Premium plan and not as beta ?

Regards

@Tanguy Crusson  Are there any plans to offer the ability to have input forms custom to the the type...so a different form input for Ideas, as opposed to Solutions or Opps?  Thanks!
