As a part of our efforts to make the transition from planning to execution smoother and more efficient, we’re introducing an improved way to create Jira work items directly from tables in Confluence.
This update is designed to save you time and give you enhanced flexibility and functionality in turning your plans in Confluence into trackable work in Jira.
Create a single work item or multiple work items within a table by simply highlighting the text in a table.
Experience the convenience of pre-filled work items, complete with suggested summary and description fields, eliminating the need for manual data entry.
Have full control over which columns are used for the Summary and Description fields, ensuring your work items are customized to your needs with less effort.
Access work items directly on your Confluence page once they've been created, reducing the need to switch between tabs and tools.
When in Jira, easily navigate back to your Confluence page from your Jira work item, keeping all of your resources and important documents at your fingertips.
We believe that this new workflow will be a major timesaver for teams using Confluence and Jira… and there’s more to come! Soon, you’ll be able to add even more mapping options like ‘label', ‘due date’, and others, and connect them to columns in your table. Stay tuned in our Confluence community space for this update!
