Inspiration

This is a Cloud edition for the Tissue - Table of linked Issues

What it does

This app can display field values from related or linked issues in a table (aka a SQL join). For example:

  • Tasks → Sub-Tasks
  • Initiatives → Epics → Stories
  • Stories → Bugs
  • Bugs → Support Tickets
  • Requirements → Test Cases → Test Reports

There are canned reports from the project view which project members can use out of the box without any configuration.

Admins can define additional relationships as reusable Tissue templates which users can use for reporting as dashboard gadgets.

How we built it

We used the Atlassian Forge framework to build it. It is a suitable choice because all the data is retained in Atlassian infrastructure and there is no need to set up the infrastructure. This is only possible thanks to the Forge team who delivered the jira:dashboardGadget Forge module

Challenges we ran into

  • The 25 seconds timeout limit for Forge means that the implementation has to be innovative and efficient.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • This is our 7th Forge app on Atlassian Marketplace.
  • We managed to achieve 100% feature parity. 🏆
    • All the features available on Data Center are also available on Cloud.

What we learned

We learnt more things about using the licensing API as this is our first paid Forge app.

What's next for Tissue - Table of linked Issues

  • Export Custom Columns - To allow the configuration of what fields can be exported

We are open to ideas for improvements. Let us know via our Service Desk running on Jira Cloud.
