Hello! I’m Laura Mehrkens, a Product Manager focused on integrations between Confluence and Jira. Today, we’re introducing Smart Links for Jira dashboards! With Smart Links, you can now embed Jira dashboards and gadgets directly into Confluence to easily keep your team up-to-date on your projects.
Here’s how pairing Confluence with Jira supercharges your reporting workflows:
Centralized Collaboration Hub: Picture this: all your project updates and insights housed in one convenient location. That's what Confluence brings to the table. By seamlessly embedding Jira dashboards and gadgets into Confluence, you create a centralized, single source of truth and collaboration hub for your team. Plus, all of your embedded dashboards remain interactive, so you can drill down into charts and graphs to understand data in more depth.
Effortless Communication: It's time to say goodbye to constantly juggling multiple tools to share project progress with your team and stakeholders. With Confluence, you can present data from Jira in an easily digestible format, without requiring your stakeholders to dive into the technical details of Jira. Paired with Confluence’s communication tools like in-line commenting, mentions, and reactions, sharing feedback and questions has never been easier.
Enhanced Productivity: Let's face it — time is of the essence in the world of project management. By harnessing the combined power of Jira and Confluence integrations, you streamline your reporting workflow, reduce tedious workarounds, and focus on what truly matters: delivering results. Think of Confluence as your sidekick, helping you work smarter, not harder.
