Jet marketplace addin

[Richard Wilson _Jarow Digital_]

What is the timing for Jet or equivalent expected to be available on marketplace 

[Shawn Kessler · Accepted solution]

Jet for Jira Align is now available in the Atlassian Marketplace for Cloud. Data Center and Server are still a few weeks away. You can access via the link below:

Very Important: Keep in mind, Jet is not a desktop app. It is intended for Admins, or at least users that have Admin rights to the site/Jira instance you plan to install the app on.

Jet for Data Center and Server are now also available via the link above.

Hi Richard, Nic, and Peter,

Thank you for the post, questions, and answers.  We are finalizing the work for a marketplace plugin of JET and will be releasing additional information as the release date becomes closer.

The new version runs additional checks, has a refined design, and is more efficient. I am excited for its release!

Cheers!

Tim

Hi @Richard Wilson _Jarow Digital_,

I assume you mean the AgileCraft/Jira Align JET utility for evaluating a Jira environment prior to integrating with Jira Align?

That utility was never meant for general use, only for initial assessment prior to integrating Jira Align to the Jira environment. The JET utility was also only intended for the use of the team doing the initial integration. It was designed to help those of us who do the integration to see in advance what issues we might be facing with the existing Jira configuration.

JET could possibly be a cool stand-alone plug-in for use by Jira admins, but I assume something like it must already exist. It certainly provided a ton of great health metrics for us getting ready to implement Jira Align with a Jira environment.

I'm sure an Atlassian Jira Align team member will address you question by tomorrow or Tuesday.

By the way, the predecessor to JET was JIST (Jira Implementation Scaling Tool). The JIST user guide can be found here. (You might need a login to access the guide.) There is no documentation on JET, to my knowledge, other than what is included in the utility itself.

Regards,
Peter

Thanks Peter,  For explaining both.  I have access to both. As part of the Jet install the documentation is included. Many organisations have challenges with installing applications on their Laptops so a plug in would be a great way to work around this.  CPrime have developed a plug in although it requires their scripting engine.

Hi @Richard Wilson _Jarow Digital_

I've worked closely with cPrime for several years. They are a great team. I didn't mention their tools because you asked specifically about JET.

JET, while pretty good, isn't as strong as the cPrime tool set, as far as I know.

Implementing Jira Align requires specific knowledge and expertise, especially to do it properly. cPrime has certainly assembled the largest brain trust of people experienced in implementing and coaching Jira Align.

Regards,

Peter

Documentation for Jet is in product--no need for external doc, as Jet is a "wizard" that will walk you step by step through the process. Pop-up modals in the product provide help content. :)

Is Jira Align a prerequisite for using Jet?

[Tim Keyes]

Hi @PATRICIA MURPHY

I hope all is well!

Its designed with Jira Align in mind but not a requirement.

Cheers!

[PATRICIA MURPHY]

Hi @TimKeys

Thanks

I installed it but could not locate how to access it.

I could see it in my installed apps I wanted to try it in my sandbox.

Hi @PATRICIA MURPHY

Do you have Jira Site Admin permissions? Visibility could be tied to permissions.

[PATRICIA MURPHY]

Hi @Tim Keyes 

Yes, I am a site Admin.

[Tim Keyes]

Hi @PATRICIA MURPHY

Thank you for the info. Maybe you can check this user group:

We replaced the Jira System Admin requirement with a Jet by Jira Align user group permission that can be turned on for any user. Find the new permission under Security > Global permissions in your Jira system settings.

[PATRICIA MURPHY]

Hi again @Tim Keyes 

Thanks for your prompt replies.

I would expect to see it there but it is not.

This is where I do see permissions for Deep Clone, Octo etc....

[Tim Keyes]

Hi @PATRICIA MURPHY

This can be the last thing to try and if it doesn't work I can guide you to create a Jira Align support ticket (Jira Align team manages JET) to check further.

After installation of the Jet by Jira Align Marketplace app, go to:

Project > select a project > Project settings (at bottom of left sidebar) > wait for sidebar to refresh > Jet (in Apps section of sidebar) 

[PATRICIA MURPHY]

Hi @Tim Keyes 

Aha!! 

That is where it is!!

Thank you!!

Could you explain what "Jet" is?

[Peter Jessen]

Hi @Nic Brough -Adaptavist-,

See my answer to your question below.

Per the latest release of the Jet by Jira Align app (version 2.1.1), permissions are now simplified.

Check it out:

Version 2.1.1 • Released 2023-04-19

Non-administrators are now able to run Jet!

We replaced the Jira System Admin requirement with a Jet by Jira Align user group permission that can be turned on for any user. Find the new permission under Security > Global permissions in your Jira system settings.

We’ve also updated the location of the app to make it accessible to any user with the required permission. Access the app from the Project settings sidebar.
