How many licenses do I need in my federation?
...
Detailed answer: You only need a Federation for Jira license on that instance, where you want to directly access the functionality of the Federation for Jira app. From that Jira instance, Federation there the Federation for Jira app will reach out to all other Jira instances in your federation, connected by Application Links.
On which Jira instances do I have to install the Federation for Jira app?
Only on those instances, where you want to directly access the functionality of the Federation for Jira app such as the /wiki/spaces/FED/pages/12386528.
Get your Federation for Jira app directly from the Marketplace.
On which Jira instances do I have to install my license/s for the Federation for Jira app?
Everywhere where you install the Federation for Jira app you need a valid license. (See also previous question.) We suggest you get a valid license and install it just after the Installation. You might choose an evaluation license for the first 30 days.
Is it getting more expensive, if we have many Jira instances in our company?
Not necessarily. It is absolutely fine to install the Federation for Jira app on just one Jira instance in your company. You then need only 1 license for that instance.
As long as your other Jira instances are connected via application links, they will be part of what the Federation for Jira app can see. For example the search results provided by the Federation for Jira app will contain issues from all your Jira instances. However this functionality to perform a combined search across your whole federation is only available on that Jira instance where you have installed and licensed the Federation for Jira app.
I'm still confused, can you give me an example?
...
I would like to verify first by myself, what exactly this all means.
No problem. We suggest you get a free evaluation license first, which is valid for 30 days.
