This feature is available only for Jira Cloud.

This feature provides the following benefits:

  • Enhances cross-team collaboration between data architects and development teams

  • Provides visibility of modeling changes within existing Jira workflows​

  • Reduces context switching between applications

  • Enables trackable approval process

  • Improves overall development process efficiency

Prerequisites

Ensure that the following prerequisites are in place:

  • A Jira account with the Jira connector enabled. If it is not enabled, contact your sales team.
