Usage

With Power Admin for Jira's search, you can find all user-apps installed apps on your Jira and see where and how they are used. When Power Admin evaluates the usage of an app, it detects and presents the following configuration elements:

  • Custom fields of custom field types added by the app to your Jira system.

  • Workflows that use conditions, validators, or post-functions added by the app.

  • Projects using the custom fields and workflows with app contributions, as described in the previous two points.

  • Filters that use custom JQL functions, contributed by the app.

  • Agile Boards that use custom JQL functions , contributed by the app.

  • Dashboards that use gadgets contributed by the app.

  • Service projects whose configurations use or reference the app. Usage detection for Service projects happens when the Service Projects' Cached Index is generated for the first time or when it’s refreshed.

App profile page

Usage

...

You may be wondering what we mean by custom JQL functions. Well, these are JQL functions provided by the app , so:

  • If an app contributes a custom JQL function and it is used in a filter, this filter is shown as a dependent object for the app.

  • If an app contributes a custom JQL function and it is used in an agile board, this agile board is shown as a dependent object for the app.

In the Details section, you can find details about all the custom fields, workflows, agile boards, filters, dashboards, and service projects that use the app’s functionality. From here, you can navigate to the Power Admin profile pages of custom fields, workflows, filters, and service projects.
