Data contribution settings

Data contribution settings let you control whether Atlassian can use metadata and in-app data from your Atlassian organization to improve Atlassian apps and services for all customers. Understand the settings listed on this page so that you can make informed decisions about your metadata and in-app data contributions. More about data contribution

To view your settings, navigate to Atlassian Administration, then Security, and then Data contribution.

Default data contribution settings

Depending on the highest active plan in your Atlassian organization your in-app data contribution setting is either set to On or Off at the organization level. You can change this default setting and also choose to include or exclude in-app data from specific Atlassian apps, spaces, or Teamwork Graph connectors. The metadata contribution setting isn’t available for all plans.

Default settings when you have apps on different plans

Your default data contribution settings are determined by the highest active plan within your Atlassian organization. If you have questions about your settings, contact support.

Here are some examples that explain how your default data contribution settings are determined.

Include or exclude in-app data

To control your data contributions, you can include or exclude the following types of in-app data:

• Atlassian apps

• Spaces within Atlassian apps

• Teamwork Graph connectors

When your in-app data contribution setting is:

• On, you can choose to exclude in-app data from any specific spaces, apps, or Teamwork Graph connectors that you don’t want to contribute

• Off, you can choose to include in-app data from any specific spaces, apps, or Teamwork Graph connectors that you want to contribute

Settings for new apps in your organization

New apps that you add to your Atlassian organization will follow your existing data contribution settings.

When you change your data contribution settings, your organization-level data contribution settings will apply to any new apps or connectors that you add later.

Settings for apps when you upgrade or downgrade plans

When you change plans, we retain your selections wherever possible.

• If you upgrade your plan and additional data contribution settings become available, we’ll inform you so you can adjust them as needed.

• If you downgrade your plan, we will not change your settings to the default of your new highest active plan. However, if you currently have a Cloud Enterprise plan in your Atlassian organization and you move to a plan that doesn’t offer a data contribution setting for metadata, metadata contribution will be turned on. In that case, we’ll notify you and give you 30 days to review your new data contribution settings before we begin to use this data according to your new configuration.
