What's New in this Release


Create a new project from a base project

Admins can now empower trusted users to create a new project based on the configuration of an existing project. To enable this, a new option Base Project(s) is added to the Project Template configuration. Admins can select one or more existing projects to be used as base projects with in a project template.

Delegated Project Creator REST endpoints

We would like to highlight the Delegated Project Creator for Jira REST endpoints, which allow you to interact with the app remotely. There are currently three available endpoints, but our goal is to add more in the future. If you would like to have any REST endpoints added, please create a support ticket in the Appfire's Support Portal.

New parameter in general configuration

In the General Configurations page, you will see a new parameter Help Us Improve the Product. When enabled, it allows us to collect some usage data that will help us improve the product. To learn more about what is being sent, refer to Analytics Information. This configuration can also be turned off if you do not wish to share the information.

Jira 8.0 compatibility

We've also made this latest release compatible with Jira 8.0. 

You can upgrade the app by navigating to > Add-ons > Manage add-ons. Please see the User Guide for usability information.
