Smart Jira Issue FAQ

The app has been fully rebuilt on Atlassian Forge. Here's a summary of what's different:

• No more LITE vs. FULL split — there is now a single app. If you were on LITE, you are eligible for a discount on the new version.
• No Configurable macro for new insertions — existing pages with the Configurable macro continue to render, but you can no longer insert new ones. Use the Smart Jira Issue macro instead.
• No manual authorization — the OAuth consent flow is gone. The macro works automatically via Atlassian Forge's built-in auth.
• Inline editing removed — clicking an issue key or summary opens the issue in Jira in a new window instead of a dialog.
• Children view and Filter view work the same as before.

Using /jj shortcut is the fastest way to insert the Smart Jira Issue macro directly into the Confluence editor.

Smart Macro is the current macro and the only way to insert Smart Jira Issue on new pages. It works out-of-the-box by copy & pasting the issue URL onto a Confluence page. It analyzes your Jira instance and displays only the fields that are actually populated, hiding empty ones to keep your documentation clean.

Configurable Macro is a legacy macro from the previous Connect-based version. Existing pages that use it continue to render correctly, but new Configurable macros can no longer be inserted.

Existing pages that already have a Configurable macro will continue to render correctly — no action needed.

However, you can no longer insert new Configurable macros. For new pages, use the Smart Jira Issue macro instead, which lets you configure exactly which fields to display.

No. The Forge-based version handles authorization automatically via Atlassian's built-in mechanisms. There is no OAuth flow and no consent screen to go through. The macro displays your Jira data as soon as you place it on a page.

Smart Jira Issue runs on Atlassian Forge — the official Atlassian serverless platform. Your Jira data never leaves Atlassian's own infrastructure. There are no third-party servers involved and no OAuth tokens stored externally.

The app carries the official "Runs on Atlassian" badge, which means it meets Atlassian's security and compliance requirements for Forge apps.

Of course. An ability to display Jira filter results is embedded in the "Smart Filter&Children View" macro.

You can search either for an issue parent or a filter name directly from the macro browser.
