FAQs

Does the Jira integration work with our existing Altium subscription?

The Jira integration itself is free but requires the Organizational Security Package.

When is the Jira integration expected to be available?

The Jira Integration was released on October 2nd. 

What are the requirements to use the Jira Integration?

In order to get the Jira Integration you need an active Altium 365 Workspace with the Organizational Security Package.

To use the Jira Integration within Altium Designer you need a least version 24.6.
We still recommend to use the latest version of Altium Designer to get the best experience. 

How can we acquire the app?

If you already have bought the Organizational Security Package, you can activate the integration in the Workspace settings (Admin -> Apps -> Jira)

What happens to Jira ticket comments in the schematics when the ticket is marked as Done?

When a ticket is marked as Done, the comment will be hidden by default but will remain visible in the Done column of the task dashboard in Altium 365.

Can we integrate Altium Designer, not Altium 365, with Jira? How do we do it?

To configure and connect the Jira integration, you need an Altium 365 Workspace.
Once configured through Altium 365, it can be used in Altium Designer as well.

Can multiple Altium 365 projects be mapped to one Jira project?

Yes, multiple Altium 365 projects can be mapped to one Jira project.

Can an Altium 365 task or comment be converted into a Jira task?

You must decide during creation whether to create an Altium 365 comment/task or to create/link a Jira issue. You cannot convert an existing Altium 365 comment into a Jira issue.

What are the benefits of integrating electronic design tools with project management software for hardware development?

Integrating Jira with your electronic design software streamlines hardware project management, making it faster and more accurate. With bi-directional synchronization between Altium 365 and Jira, tasks, comments, and statuses update automatically, eliminating manual data entry and minimizing errors. Engineers stay focused on their design work in their preferred environment, without needing to switch between tools.

Teams leveraging Jira for hardware development gain enhanced project visibility, providing managers and engineers with real-time updates on design progress. Tasks can be created, linked, and updated directly within the design environment, fostering collaboration across teams and helping projects advance with fewer delays.
