The first version of Octo APIs is here!

Octo’s public APIs allow you to connect Octo to third-party apps like GitLab, Github, Bitbucket, and so on but also automate manual tasks using custom implementation or Automation for Jira.

You can use Octo APIs to create and update components including cross-project components, component versions, and component labels.

Component hierarchy and sub-components are now available in Octo! 🪜🚀

Released on 27th September 2021

Jira components are a great way to structure your work in Jira. But flat hierarchy doesn't match the real life which makes it hard to train new users to use Components in Jira correctly and that can lead to mistakes in your reports.

...

With a new feature in Octo - Component hierarchy you can structure your components, create sub-components, and tag your components with labels (tags) 🏷.

  • Component hierarchy table where you can create sub-components by using drag and drop

  • Component hierarchy field in issue detail where you can select a component from the structured dropdown

  • Using component labels (tags) to create a hierarchy

📣 Give Octo sub-components and hierarchy a try and let us know what you think and what we can improve 👉 Give feedback
