Smart Links just got smarter!

[#1]

We’ve enhanced Smart Links with added features and functions, making collaboration and project management even more seamless and efficient. Get ready to experience a whole new level of productivity and convenience with Smart Links for Jira, Confluence, GitHub, and more! 🚀

What are Smart Links?

New Smart Link hover experience to summarize with AI and run actions

When you hover over inline Smart Links, you’ll get the option to summarize the content with AI and save time without leaving the page you’re on. For Premium and Enterprise users, you can also run Automation rules straight from the Smart Link hover card.

Display your search results as a Smart Link list view

We previously released a way for you to keep your stakeholders up-to-date with cross-product content through Smart Link list view options:

• Insert Jira issues in Confluence pages

• Display Jira issues in Atlas

• Display assets data in Confluence

Now you can do the same with GitHub issues and Confluence search results, with more Smart Link list view options on the way!

Insert a Jira dashboard Smart Link to view it as an embed

Ever had to share a project update with leadership and struggled to visualize your team’s Jira progress in Confluence? Couldn’t figure it out and just ended up taking screenshots of Jira? You can now embed entire Jira dashboards as well as individual gadgets in Confluence or any other Atlassian editor like Jira issues and Trello cards.

Organize your Smart Links in your content tree

Consolidate all your work in one location by creating Smart Links and placing them in your Confluence content tree. This helps centralize and navigate all your work and information from various Atlassian products, streamlining access and organization.

Already a big fan of Smart Links in the content tree.

This article introduced to me the AI Summary on a Smart Link, which I just tested on a few pages in my environment and the summary was 👌.

Thanks!

Hello,

could you explain more about "For Premium and Enterprise users, you can also run Automation rules straight from the Smart Link hover card."

When the smart link points to a Jira Issue, can I trigger actions on the Jira issue itself?

thanks!

Vincent

Hey Vincent! 

Confluence automation is currently only available for Premium / Enterprise customers. 

When you have a Jira issue Smart Link on a page, you can change the status of the issue inline today. To do this you can hover over a Jira link, click on the status lozenge and change the status. This will be reflected in the Smart Link immediately as well 

We currently do not support running automations on Jira issues from Smart Links today. We only support manual trigger automation actions today.

If you want to leave any other feedback or request more actions to be added to Jira Smart Links please let us know here. 

Kind regards, 

Venkatesh
