Goals and projects integration (ex Atlas) ready for early testers

[#1]

Edit: as of 1 July 2024 the integration is now available to everyone. 

• To turn it on: go to Project settings > Features > Atlas integration
• To understand how to use it: watch the video below

Also, Atlas has now graduated and goals and projects are moving into the Atlassian Platform. Customers using Atlas can keep doing so, new customers can sign-up to the Platform Goals experience. Both are supported by this integration.

Hi everyone!

We're ready to start giving some of you access to the Atlas integration - so you can use goals and projects in Jira Product Discovery. Some of the things you're able to do with this: 

• Group ideas by goals
• Group ideas by project status
• Sync ideas target dates with Atlas project target dates
• Basically, you're able to tell a story that goes from goals -> ideas -> projects in a very visual way, and only have to update dates in one spot: your roadmap is always up to date!

If you'd like to get access to this, please add a comment below and include your site URL eg. myteam.atlassian.net 

Thanks!

Hi @Tanguy Crusson

We would love to get in the early adopters pool. Pretty please ;)

Cheers,

Ákos

[Tanguy Crusson]

Cool, we'll get onto it next week. Note: you only need to put your hand up if you need access to the Atlas integration. For the rest, it will just ship automatically to everyone

[Ákos Botos]

Hi,

Yes we would like to have Acces to the Atlas integ.

Cheers

[Amanda Barber]

Me, me! Thanks, @Tanguy Crusson 

[Michelle Grady]

This is exciting, thank you! I would like to have access to the Atlas integration.

[Brent Vierling]

I would like access please!

[Jimi Wikman]

I would like early access as well :)

Also, I am wondering what the long term architecture for master data looks like @Tanguy Crusson ? The way this is designed, we are setting Atlas as the master of project dates (if we use it) and I wonder how that will look large scale?

Will we see this happening in other products as well, or is this unique to Jira Product Discovery?

I am asking because from a flow perspective, JPD is in the discovery phase and we currently have a gap between discovery and Build (or Delivery in your model) since there is a financial "glue" needed for funding projects.

It seems a bit weird to use a broadcasting tool like Atlas to be added in between Discovery and Build, especially since Atlas have no connection to Build (at least not yet)?

This will also impact other products like Advanced Roadmaps where Projects often are defined Issue Types, or apps like BigPicture that also have start and end date that would then be in conflict with the Atlas connection?

From an architectural and data perspective, would it not make sense to define what the different types of financial constructs are and how data for them should be handled from a master data perspective? I don't see Atlas as the master for any project data, but perhaps that is a long term plan that we are not aware of yet?

Our team is already using Atlas but still experimenting with JPD. This would be a good update for us. I would like to have early access. @Tanguy Crusson 

[Jan-Hendrik Spieth]

Thanks for the update, @Tanguy Crusson! Locking views, formula fixes, Atlas integration -- all looking great!

[Jan-Hendrik Spieth]

@Tanguy CrussonAbout testing Atlas integration - we'd love to! However, as I'm on parental leave right now, I don't want to make promises as to how much time I can put into trying things out. If that's ok for you, then please count us in for early access! Thanks!

[Paul Douglas]

+1 for me please

[Riku.Kristersson]

+1 thanks! @Tanguy Crusson 

[Sam.Youssif]

Yes please

[Florian Wahl]

Thanks for the update @Tanguy Crusson - I would love to get the early access for my team. We are already using Product Discovery and are in the middle of considering to use Atlas as well. This would be a tremendous value for our teams to have these synced (especially the dates, great job on finding that solution!!).

[Aaron Mosny]

@Tanguy Crusson Do you know when early adopters can expect to see the atlas integration? Also can you confirm that my company is on the early adopter list? Thanks! Awesome work team!

[Fredson Nogueira da Silva]

Me too! Thanks @Tanguy Crusson 

[Tanguy Crusson]

Hi everyone, we expect to turn this on for you in the next few days 👍

[Tom Hedges]

@Tanguy Crusson +1 for testing the integration :)
