Add work to focus areas
You can connect work from other Atlassian apps to your focus areas to show who’s executing those strategic priorities and how it’s going.
You can link existing Jira Align, Jira, and Atlassian Project work to focus areas of any type at any level.
Your product admin determines which Atlassian apps are connected to your Focus instance.
