New features

This release is fully dedicated to introducing a new feature – Side panel with essential OKR information and actions on the OKR Overview page.

New Side Panel feature

The Side Panel has been created to allow OKR app users to conveniently check details, progress, and updates while staying in the context of the OKR table. It keeps you focused while providing quick access to essential information.

Opening and using the Side Panel

Select an Objective or Key Result from the OKR Overview page to open the Side panel. To close it, use the Close button from the top right or simply unselect the OKR by clicking on it.

With this new feature, you can do multiple actions while staying in the context of the main OKR Overview table:

• Check OKR details, Progress, and Updates.

• Provide new updates or comments on the old ones.

• Create new OKR for selected Objectives.

• Create new or link existing Jira issues to Key Results
