Info

Dedicated Add-ons per Application

Bamboo and JIRA are each supported via a new dedicated add-on per Atlassian application due to Marketplace restrictions for cross-product add-ons:

  • the former JIRA only add-on will be archived, but can technically be used in parallel to ease migrating to the new version (minor usability issues apply)

  • the add-ons operate independent right now, i.e. credentials need to be managed separately for each and duplicated if desired - cross-product usage via application links is on our mid-term roadmap

System scoped AWS credentials

An AWS connector can now be denoted as System scoped and then used from elevated code (e.g. within another add-on) without an active user session to allow usage within Atlassian Bamboo's Tasks for example, as facilitated by Tasks for AWS.
