JIRA Workflow for Documentation lifecycle?

Steve Hayhurst_ue6k6p

Morning all and Happy Friday

 

I am implementing doc lifecycle processes and procedures for a client (which have NONE). the Pilot team uses JIRA and would like to to minimize their overhead regarding documentation by including us in the JIRA world side of things.

Being pretty newbie to JIRA, I was wondering a couple of things:

1. Where can I find what JIRA can do as far as documentation?

2. Is there existing workflow objects or plugins around documentation life cycle either integrated or available to integrate with JIRA?

Customer is using Flare for their documentation. Is there any integration capability either directly with Madcap Flare or can someone point me at the integration capabilities so I can look at what it would take to get Flare and JIRA  interaction.

 

Thanks in advance

@Steve Hayhurst, I'm not entirely sure about what you are trying to do here but it sounds like you'd like to use Jira to manage the workflow of your Flare documentation.  If that's the case, check out this Blog article:

If not, and you're trying to create documentation, I would recommend Confluence as Jira will be great for tracking to documentation process but poor for actually being the documentation.
