App for cross-project Releases ?

[Mirela Todorova]

HI, 

in our current Jira setup, we have a Release per project, but we want to combine Release cross more than one project so that they are shared. I know there is such an app for the Components so they are shared,  is there one for the Releases as well?

Hi @Mirela Todorova,

Cross-project releases are available in Advanced Roadmaps. As you seem to be on a premium plan, you have that feature available, but only in the planning interface of Advanced Roadmaps.

See this support article for more information.

Hope this helps!

Hi @Mirela Todorova

Trust you are well.

If you want to create Jira Dashboard to visualize release items from multiple projects you might wanna look into our Release Gadgets App.

If you need more management capabilities and in addition to releases you also want outline Epics, Sprints and maybe Releases based on custom JQL scope we suggest try out Release Management for Jira.

Kind regards,

Yuri.

Hi @Mirela Todorova,

You can easily do cross-project release tracking with our Great Gadgets app. 

See for example, these article on our blog: 

• Cross-teams release burndown chart in Jira with Great Gadgets app
• How to track multi-team or scaled-agile projects (such as SAFe®) in Jira with Great Gadgets app  

Basically, all you need is a Jira filter with the issues from the release (from all your Jira projects). Then configure the gadgets to use this filter. 

See an example of Release Burndown Chart:

Similarly, you can use Kanban Velocity gadget and display a velocity chart at the global level. 

This app offers many other gadgets tat you will find useful. If you have questions, please let me know.

Thank you,

Danut M.

What specifically are you looking to share between projects?

• Version name/number
• Reporting 
• Release notes

If you are looking to create release notes across multiple projects, take a look at Released.
