whiteboard integration

[rene.kempe]

Hi all,

I'm currently assessing different tools for our innovation pipeline management.

Ideas are usually entering from a whiteboard (brainstorming sessions). We're using Miro and I've seen the API to Jira SW to create issues out of sticky notes.

Is it planned to have a similar interface between Miro and JPD? Or alternatively, are you planning to integrate a native whiteboard solution into JPD? (Like I've seen the Beta whiteboard in Confluence.)

Thanks

René

Hello Rene, 

You can normally surface Jira Product Discovery projects when using the addon Jira cards , developed by Miro. 

This is a plugin developed by Miro, is free and let you create ideas out of sticky notes. 

Alternatively, you can indeed use Confluence whiteboards and create Jira Product Discovery ideas from your Confluence whiteboard.

Hi Hermance,

Thank you for your reply!

I was expecting that Miro's Jira cards might also work with JPD, but I haven't seen that documented anywhere. Also the label says "convert to Jira Issue" which I think targets Jira SW. But if any JPD project would also appear in that project list that would be great. You say normally, can you confirm that? Or shall I check with the Miro team?

Both Jira SW and Confluence would not work for our scope as we have too few licenses for all the people that eventually participate in brainstorming. The JPD model with free contributors would work nicely, but we would need a whiteboard in JPD. Is that a feature on your roadmap or does that remain exclusively in Confluence?

Hello Rene, 

No I can confirm it works, I briefly collaborated with the Miro team on it :) It doesn't specifically target JSW, JPD projects also appear (I actually believe any Jira project appear to be fair). 

The whiteboard view for Jira Product Discovery isn't on our roadmap for the moment, we are indeed relying on Confluence to address this need at the moment.
