Link an idea to a Jira work item

Once an idea is prioritized in Jira Product Discovery, you can connect it to Jira to start planned delivery work. Then, track the work progress from within the idea in Jira Product Discovery by linking it to an Epic, Initiative, or another work type in the idea delivery tab.

Once the idea is linked to a work item, you can see a new section called Ideas within the Jira work item. The section will display any linked ideas and will also enable you to search and link ideas.

Before you begin

• You need to have at least one Jira space.

• You must be a creator or an admin in Jira Product Discovery and have permissions in Jira to perform this action.

Steps

1. In Jira Product Discovery, select the idea you want to link to a Jira work item or create a new one.

2. On the right panel, select Delivery.

3. To link an existing work item, under Link a Jira work item, select the space and the existing work item from within that space.

4. To create a new work item, under Create a new work item, select the space, the work type and type the name, then Create.

5. Search for the Jira space and work item you want to link.
