Have you started using new idea TYPES in JPD?

[Shelly Kitchen]

Curious to hear how others are using the new idea types feature in JPD.  Have you started customizing idea types, and if so, how is it going?

A few things I’d love to learn from others:

• Have you set up different workflows for each idea type?

• What are some pros and cons you've experienced with using multiple idea types?

• Any best practices or watch-outs you'd recommend?

Thanks in advance—looking forward to learning from the community!

I'd say this feature is mostly useful for the new hierachy feature in premium plans. Idea types to support this could be: opportunity/solution/experiment

@Shelly Kitchen - How do we access the new idea types? It sounds promising!

@Shelly Kitchen - I found the new Idea Types, I'm going to start using it over the next couple of weeks and see how it goes.

@Shelly Kitchen - thank you for pointing out the new idea types, that does indeed look promising! I am also interested in reasonable use cases. One thing that doesn't work (yet), but which I personally would find exciting, is: If it were possible to design the templates differently depending on the selection of the idea type when creating ideas.
And in my opinion it is a pity that the idea type “idea” cannot be renamed to be more specific when creating different types

If anyone finds any official article from Atlassian about this please share it here. I haven't found any. Would be nice to have some heads up @Hermance NDounga about this. Do you have some info to share with the community? Thanks!
