What's new with Gliffy Diagrams for Confluence Cloud?
Good news, Gliffy Diagrams in Confluence and Jira users!
Gliffy has a new groundbreaking Jira app, called Gliffy Project, that builds a connection between visuals in Confluence and Jira issues.
How does this help me work more efficiently?
No one wants to spend time constantly reporting out the status of their software project. Teams using Gliffy Diagrams in Confluence and Gliffy Project together say they are more productive and have better visibility across the product development and release cycle. We hope to make diagrams more relevant and help teams move work forward by connecting your Confluence visuals with Jira issues.
By building a bridge between Confluence and Jira, Gliffy Project will hopefully help your team build better projects more accurately, communicate more effectively, and keep documentation organized and easily accessible.
Why does this matter?
How do better understand these enhancements?
The best way to understand how these enhancements will improve your work is to go to the Atlassian Marketplace to start a free 30-day trial of Gliffy Project and/or Gliffy Diagrams for Confluence Cloud.
How does it work?
From Confluence to Gliffy Project
Any Gliffy Diagram in Confluence directly connects to Gliffy Project. Hover over the Gliffy Diagram viewer in a Confluence page. Then click on the “Add to Gliffy Project” button in the viewer menu. You will immediately go to Gliffy Project in which your diagram will automatically appear after signing into your Jira account. Start creating Jira issues directly from your diagram.
From Gliffy Project back to Confluence
Gliffy Project directly links to your corresponding Confluence visual. You can go back to the original image from the overview page, navigation bar, and canvas. This allows you to easily interchange between Gliffy Project and Confluence to edit images, retrieve information, and update Confluence pages.
Pro Tip: All changes on images made in Confluence are automatically updated in Gliffy Project.
