As we collect more and more feedback from you, we wanted to share the current functional limitations (and their eventual workarounds) in Jira Product Discovery:
Jira Product Discovery projects are currently only available in a team-managed project setting, not company-managed, which means they are self-contained, and cannot share configuration or fields with other Discovery projects. If you want to reuse the configuration of a project in another one, you’ll have to replicate this configuration manually for now, since a specific configuration cannot be templatized or copied from another project.
Update 27/02: Global fields are coming
You can import ideas into a project using a CSV import, however:
We do not recommend using the Backup/Restore method with Jira Product Discovery projects as we are aware of multiple issues affecting the ideas and the project.
You can use Project Automation in Jira Product Discovery projects, with the following limitations:
Check out our article regarding Automation to learn some best practices
Jira Product Discovery introduces new field types (delivery progress, vote, formula...) and concepts (insights, comments on views...) to Jira. Fields can also look different to the rest of Jira (colors, emojis, etc.) These new items have been built outside of the Jira legacy platform to bring more flexibility to Jira Product Discovery, but support for these hasn’t been added in all the places where you can open an issue in Jira
It is currently not possible to receive notifications for mentions in a view's comment or an idea's insight.
Cross-site linking
You can link ideas and create delivery tickets in any project, as long as the project belongs to the same site. Jira Product Discovery currently doesn't support linking ideas to tickets from other sites or Data Center instances.
Jira Product Discovery is available only in free and standard versions. Sandboxes aren't supported in Jira Product Discovery and we recommend to remove Jira Product Discovery from your sandbox as we can't guarantee optimal experience.
Cloud-to-cloud migration
The current Cloud-to-cloud migration tooling does not support yet team-managed projects.
At the moment, you will need to export your projects as .csv and import them in the destination site :
Open Settings > System > External System Import. Select .csv and your .csv file.
This will not import insights, view configurations, field decorations, workflows and users, which will need to be re-created manually
Atlassian Connect, Forge / Marketplace apps aren't working in Jira Product Discovery projects yet, and the API for Jira Product Discovery artecfact isn't public.
