敏捷团队最好同时使用：Confluence 与 JIRA 

为帮助软件开发团队，我们对JIRA Agile（原名Greenhopper）和Confluence的使用进行规范化。在敏捷开发的所有阶段——需求定义、规划冲刺（Sprint）、积压事项、进度报告和回顾历史冲刺。

在Confluence中，你可以： 

• 创建JIRA问题和Epics；
• 选中文本，即可在JIRA中创建故事（Stories），并且自动创建Epic链接。

在JIRA中，你可以：

• 从Epic中创建页面 —— 例如，该主题的需求。
• 从Sprite中创建页面 —— 例如，Sprint 的某个会议纪要。
• 将Epic、Issue、Sprint链接到某个已存在的Confluence页面上 —— 例如，计划文档、技术规范和客户调查等。
• 完成冲刺后，创建历史回顾页面。

我们认为，这些改进将为用户带来巨大的改变：不论是经常偏爱JIRA的项目负责人和开发人员，还是偏爱Confluence的项目经理和商业分析人员。不管你在哪个平台，仅需要轻轻一点，JIRA和Confluence内容即可相互操作，相互通信。

Confluence和JIRA: 敏捷团队的更好组合

We have streamlined working with JIRA Agile (formerly known as Greenhopper) and Confluence to help software teams through all phases of the agile development process - defining requirements, planning sprints, populating the backlog, reporting on progress and running retrospectives.

In Confluence you can: 

• Create issues and epics without leaving the editor.
• Highlight text to create stories in JIRA and automatically link them to an epic.

In JIRA Agile you can:

• Create a page from an epic - for example your requirements page for that theme of work.
• Create a page from a sprint - for example a your sprint meeting notes.
• Link epics, issues and sprints to existing Confluence pages - for example design docs, technical specifications, customer research.
• Create a retrospective page when completing a sprint.

We think these improvements will make a huge difference for team leads and developers who spend much of their time in JIRA, and for product managers, project managers and business analysts who spend more of their time in Confluence.  No matter where you are, related JIRA and Confluence content is only a click away. 

Create JIRA issues from Confluence

If you use Confluence and JIRA together it is now even easier to create JIRA issues right from your Confluence page. Highlight any text on a Confluence page and you will see a Create JIRA Issue option near your selection. What can you do with it?

• Create a single issue from the highlighted text.
• Create multiple issues from highlighted text in a table - an issue for each row in the table.
• Automatically embed the new issues on to the page so you can track their progress.
• Link the new issues to an epic, if your page already has epic embedded on it.

从Confluence页面上创建JIRA问题

如果你同时使用Confluence和JIRA，你可以通过选中Confluence内容的文字，直接创建JIRA问题。选中文字后，文本变得高亮，然后你会看见“创建JIRA问题”选项。利用该选项能做什么事情呢？ 

• 从高亮的文本中创建一个问题。
• 从表格高亮的文本创建多个问题 —— 每行一个问题。
• 自动将新建的问题嵌入到页面上，以方便跟踪进度。
• 如果你已经将Epic嵌入到页面，那么会为新建的问题创建Epic的链接。

这个功能为日常任务的创建节省了大量时间，例如将需求文档转换成待办事项（Backlog）—— 在产品需求蓝图中，你可以加入一个Epic，在故事列中，选中某些文字，然后选择创建JIRA问题，最后根据提示，你可以通过一个简单的步骤，创建所有的故事。This is a big timesaver for common tasks like transitioning your requirements into your team's backlog. For example, in the Product Requirements blueprint - you can add an epic, highlight some text in the Story column, choose Create JIRA Issue and follow the prompts to create all your stories in one easy step!

Give feedback fast with Quote in Comment

Reviewing a requirements document, meeting notes, decision or project plan?

Highlight any text on a Confluence page and you'll see a Quote in Comment button near your selection. This will add your selected text to the comment field, with the quote style applied - much faster than copy and paste.

Communicate your releases with new JIRA Reports

If you use JIRA and Confluence, creating change logs and status reports is now simple with the new JIRA Report blueprint. Choose Create > JIRA Report and follow the prompts. 

The Status Report uses the new JIRA Chart macro, which enables you to display information from JIRA as a pie chart.  The Change Log report displays a snapshot of your progress.

快速反馈：在备注中直接引用页面内容

你是否需要评审需求文档、检查会议记录、制定项目计划或者需要作出决策呢？

选中页面上的文字，在高亮内容附近，你会看到在备注中引用的按钮。点击按钮，即可在备注中添加一段直接引用 —— 复制粘贴简直土爆了。

新增JIRA报告：传达你的发布信息

如果你使用JIRA和Confluence，那么你可以使用JIRA报告蓝图创建变更日志和状态报告。选择 创建 > 报告 ，然后根据提示操作即可。

状态报告（Status Report ）使用的是JIRA图像（JIRA Chart）宏，可以饼图显示JIRA的信息。变更日志（Change Log ）报告可显示进程的报告。

跟大多数页面蓝图一样，你可以编辑页面，为团队和项目定制报告。As with most page blueprints, the templates can be edited so you can customise the reports for your team or project.

Reflect and improve on your sprints with Retrospectives

Confluence now has a Retrospectives blueprint to help you take inventory of what went well and what didn't during a sprint or project. Choose Create >Retrospective.

Use this page blueprint at the end of a sprint, release cycle or project, and collaborate with your team to document your strengths, address opportunity areas, and assign tasks for the future.  

回顾历史：思考和改进冲刺（Sprints）

Confluence新增了一个回顾蓝图，利用该蓝图，你可以盘点一个冲刺或项目中，哪些做得好，哪些做得不好。选择创建 > 回顾。

一般而言，回顾页面蓝图使用于冲刺、版本周期或项目的尾声，这有助于团结团队力量，发挥团队优势向机会领域拓展，并为今后的任务分配提供数据支持。

如果使用 If you use JIRA Agile 6.3.5 or above, you'll be prompted to create a retrospective page right from your sprint!或以上的版本，系统会提醒你创建回顾页面。

Complete JIRA traceability

Get immediate context about how your content relates to your projects in JIRA.

A new button appears at the top of your page when there are connections between the page and JIRA or JIRA Agile.  Click the button to see details of issues, epics and sprints connected to the page -  giving you great traceability right from within Confluence.

You can link items in JIRA to Confluence pages:

• in Confluence by embedding a JIRA issue on the page
• in JIRA by linking a page to an issue, and
• in JIRA Agile by linking a page to a sprint or epic.

We've also made some changes to the page byline to make it easier to see information about your page at a glance.

Manage your docs with the Documentation space blueprint

Ready to share your software with your customers? Manage your documentation in Confluence with the new Documentation space blueprint. Documentation spaces use the full page tree in the sidebar, a search field to search only in that space, and labels to add topics to your pages.  

Try it for yourself, choose Create Space > Documentation.

完美的追溯到JIRA

该功能可以瞬时了解页面内容与JIRA项目的关系。

当Confluence同JIRA或JIRA关联后，在页面顶部新增了一个按钮。点击按钮，你可以看到与内面内容相关的问题、Epic、冲刺的详细信息 —— 在Confluence中，你便可以做到完美的追溯。

你可以将通过下列方式链接到Confluence页面：

• 在Confluence页面中嵌入JIRA问题；
• 在JIRA中，创建Confluence页面链接；
• 在JIRA Agile中，创建Sprint或Epic的链接。

利用文档空间蓝图管理文档

做好与客户分享软件的准备了吗？使用Confluence的文档空间蓝图即可管理所有与之相关的文档。文档空间的侧边栏有一棵页面树，有一个仅限于本空间的搜索字段，还有标注页面主题的标签。

操作步骤： 创建空间 > 文档。

新增

 JIRA Chart macro

The new JIRA Chart Macro enables you to display the results of a JIRA search as a pie chart on a Confluence page.  See it in action in the JIRA Report blueprint or add it to any page via the macro browser.使用JIRA图表宏可以将JIRA的搜索结果以饼图的方式展现在Confluence中。你可以在JIRA报告蓝图中看到该宏，当然也可以自行添加到任何页面上。

状态

改进

 JIRA Issues macro

We've made a number of improvements to the JIRA Issues macro. You can now:

• create Epics from within the Confluence editor via the Insert > JIRA dialog
• configure the number of results returned by the macro, and
• use autocomplete to select which columns to include in the JIRA issues macro (table view).

我们对JIRA问题宏进行了大量改进，现在你可以：

• 通过插入 > JIRA对话框，在Confluence页面上创建Epic；
• 对宏的显示结果进行配置；
• 自行选择JIRA问题宏所显示的列。

状态

改进

 页面属性报告宏（Page Properties Report

macro）

 页面属性报告宏增加了页码标记和排序功能。你可以自行指定各页面在报告中的显示元素，且按某列排序。This macro has been updated to include pagination and sorting. You can specify the number of items to display on each page of the table (with links to additional pages of results) and also specify a column to sort the table by.

状态

改进

 产品需求蓝图（Product Requirements

We've improved the Product Requirements blueprint to make use of the new integration points between Confluence, JIRA and JIRA Agile. There's a new prompt to create a JIRA issue or epic to track your requirements and we've renamed some table headings to make the experience clearer when you highlight text to create your stories in JIRA. 

We've also introduced a new type of instructional text that can be used in any template that, when clicked, triggers the JIRA Issues macro dialog allowing users to search for or create an issue. Learn more about how you can using this feature in your own templates.

Using JIRA Agile?

We've made it easier for scrum masters or project leads to:

• link or create pages such as requirements, designs or specifications to epics
• link or create pages such as meeting notes, specifications or sprint goals for sprints, and
• conduct a retrospective after completing a sprint.

 为了更好的将Confluence与JIRA、JIRA Agile集成，我们对产品需求蓝图做了新的整合。创建JIRA问题或Epic的引导有了新的变化，且对表格标题命名做了改动，这些变更为在Confluence中直接选中文本创建敏捷Story的用户，提供更加清晰的体验。

同时，我们引进了一种新型的指导文本，该文本可用于任何目标，当文本被点击后，会触发JIRA问题宏。了解更多该功能的想请，请参考自定义模板。

正在使用JIRA Agile？

现在，Scrum教练和项目负责人可以更简单完成：

• 建立关联文档，如需求文档、设计文档和Epic指标；
• 建立记录文档，如会议纪要、规格说明、Sprint目标；
• 在Sprint完成后，组织回顾会议
