Roadmaps (private beta)
Communicate high level plans with your stakeholders and customers.
Overview
Create internal or customer facing roadmaps, straight from your Jira issues. Expose as many or as few fields, and create a custom description that best describes your plans. Since all the data is stored on the issue, your roadmap will always be up to date.
Pre-requisite
To use the roadmaps feature in your Jira instance, please install the Released app and create a space to get started.
Basics
Enabling roadmaps
While in private beta, Roadmaps are being rolled out progressively to customers on the waitlist.
Once your spot becomes available, an email containing a link to activate roadmaps for your instance will be sent to you. Simply switch on the feature, and it will become available across all your spaces.
Creating a roadmap view
Creating a roadmap view only takes a couple of minutes.
Select Roadmap in the sidebar navigation and click on the "Create roadmap" button.
Select a field to create your board columns.
Create your preferred column layout and map the field options to the columns.
Click Create.
Filters
Use filters to narrow down the issues to show on the roadmap. Use basic filters like issue type or labels or use JQL for more advanced filtering
Beta limitation
The board is limited to 100 cards during the early beta. We will increase that limit in the coming weeks.
Publishing
Beta limitation
The roadmap can only be published to the page embed view at this stage. See the installation instruction on how to embed the roadmap in your website or app.
To publish your roadmap, click the Publish button located in the top right corner. This action will publish the roadmap in its current state.
Currently, the following fields are displayed:
Summary - the title of the idea
Public description - an internal field that can be edited inline on the roadmap
Status - the column status
Support for more fields will be added throughout the beta period.
Once a roadmap has been published, a switch will appear on the page embed. Allowing you to navigate between the Changelog and the Roadmap.
Unpublish
To unpublish the roadmap view, simply press the unpublish icon right next to the publish button. Your roadmap will be immediately unavailable on the page embed.
