👋 Anyone know of any tech events happening in Philly? (I'll be scouring Meetup or Eventbrite later...) Ideally Atlassian-related, but I know we all don't have professional diets of just Jira and Confluence. 🙃 Online, I know of a few things happening soon: * 9/29 - Atlassian's Work Life (in-person in San Francisco), virtual…

Anyone use Confluence templates to assist with decision analysis? In the past I've leveraged spreadsheets to weigh alternatives, but looking for something lighter. (I found an article from Gliffy on a SWOT analyses - it was interesting, and sent me down this rabbit hole...) 🐇

👋 Yo Philly Community! Hope everyone's well? It's been awhile, but we have an event planned!

Agenda: Our ACE is teaming up with the Chicago, Columbus, New York City,…

Crossposted from the Government collection - see the original post. Thought this was worth sharing in Enterprise, as many customers have Data Center instances they manage. Happy Monday! 🙌 Atlassian is taking the virtual stage this Tuesday, March 14th, to share their forward-looking view and some of the great enhancements…

Anyone able to get the Lucidchart Diagrams Connector working on Confluence 8.0.x? It's crashing on Confluence startup, and we haven't figured out a workaround of any kind.

In case you missed it last week - I know I did - @Mel Policicchio just posted a Data Center Digest for Q4 2022. In it, there are a number of LTS releases just pushed out (Jira 9.4 LTS!), and big (non-LTS) releases that are coming soon - like Confluence 8.0! * Of note in Confluence, there will be subtle improvements to…

Howdy, Enterprise Community! 👋 Three quick things: * I'm thrilled to be posting a non-CVE post. 🙏🔒 * It's Friday - TGIF! 🎉 * If you're using Data Center products, there's a lot that has shipped, and are coming soon. Read more in Mel's quarterly Data Center post. Don't feel like reading? Here were my takeaways from Mel's…

...or to administer two Data Center instances serving four business units, with users geographically distributed worldwide in five cities? Or to administer a single Cloud instance with teams in Los Angeles and Paris? For those running operations in Jira, what are the factors you considered when staffing up (or training…

Mergers and acquisitions happen. These "marriages" offer challenges that on-premise Atlassian products didn't, due to the nature of Atlassian IDs. What happens when you merge two different user populations into a single Cloud tenant? In Cloud, how do you combine two organizations that may have duplicate names, or…

Hello Enterprise community! Are you responsible for any Confluence Server or Data Center instances? If yes, update your Confluence instance to a patched version, or perform any of the remediation steps in Atlassian's recent Security Advisory, Confluence Security Advisory 2022-06-02. There's a summary of the exploit, and…

This week Atlassian released an advisory detailing new CVEs affecting multiple Atlassian products, including Jira and Confluence.

Disney Streaming is seeking a candidate with experience with: * Jira DC (you know, Data Center!) * Jira Service Management DC * Confluence DC * Crowd DC Can you wire up those tools, and teach folks how to use them properly? Can you do all (or lots) of the things detailed in the nifty job posting that I'm linking…

Are you responsible for gathering insights from data, especially Jira data? If you've integrated Jira with BI tools in the past, you know it's not always the easiest task. Atlassian's developing Data Lake to simplify this process, which is now available as an Early Access Preview (EAP). On a Jira Software Premium or…

G'day Confluence Community! 👋 Have you heard about the Enterprise Community? I'm Dave and I'm an Atlassian Enterprise Community Leader. I'm not an Atlassian employee, but a customer like you. I love Atlassian's products and spend lots of time using their products and teaching others how to use them effectively. Together…

Howdy Jira Service Management Community! 👋 I'm Dave and I'm an Atlassian Enterprise Community Leader. I'm not an Atlassian employee, but a customer like you. I love Atlassian's products and spend a ton of time using them in my role as an administrator for a company with +5,000 magic makers. Together with my fellow…

Happy Friday, y'all! 👋 For some reason I've owned way too many phones. Are there any phones that will always be your forever favorite, or deserve a special mention for posterity's sake? Right now I use an F(x)tec Pro1 to manage Jira projects on the go:

Anyone have experience using Jira in a virtual reality environment?* If no, are you a team that's looking to experiment with new ways of working? What questions do you have? If YES, how are you getting this done? * What's your configuration? Using an office collaboration app like Horizon Workrooms or Glue? How about…

Yep, I said multiverse. Not all admin duties are created equal, and it seems Atlassian finally got that memo. Did you know Atlassian has plans for granular admin roles - think user management, product config, and so on? In Server/Data Center, one needs to grant admins global admin to manage users. This takes careful…
