Publish views

With Jira Product Discovery, you can share a published view of roadmaps, timelines, and product backlogs with stakeholders inside and outside your organization. For example, you could share a published view with senior leadership to provide them with an overview of a strategic scope or even with external customers and partners so they can track upcoming feature requests.

A published view is essentially a snapshot of the view you select that allows you to manage whether or not you share comments, fields, attachments, and descriptions and with whom. The publishing option is available for every type of view.

Before you begin

  • Only customers on the Standard plan can publish views.

  • This feature is disabled for all creators by default and has to be enabled by the project admin.

Enable user access to publishing views

Before creator can publish a view, the project admin must grant them permission to publish views. To do so:

  1. Create a custom role by going to Project settings > Access > Create new role.

  2. Fill in the required fields and check the permission Publish a view under Work on views, and click Create role.
