Workflow and delivery

Atlassian integration

Jira for the work, Confluence for the knowledge. The Atlassian integration files content work as issues and reads the documentation your drafts should be grounded in.

What it is

What the Atlassian integration is

The Atlassian connection covers Jira, Confluence and Compass. Jira receives content work as issues in the project you choose; Confluence supplies internal documentation as source material for drafts.

For larger organisations this is usually the deciding integration. Content work has to enter the same governance as everything else, and the product truth lives in Confluence pages that a writer would otherwise have to be told about.

What it does

What you can do with it

Four questions the two data sets answer together that neither answers alone.

Citation gaps become issues in the project you nominate, with the brief and evidence attached and your workflow states respected.

How it works

How the Atlassian integration works

About a minute to connect, and nothing to maintain afterwards.

1

Connect your Atlassian site

Open Settings, then Integrations, and choose Atlassian. Authorise the site and the products you want connected.

2

Choose the Jira project

Pick where content work is filed, along with issue type, default state and labels.

3

Share the Confluence spaces

Nominate the spaces WriteWorks may read as source material for drafts.

4

Work and report

Gaps become issues, drafts are grounded in your documentation, and published pages are tracked back to the issues that produced them.

Who it is for

Who uses the Atlassian integration

The same connection answers a different question depending on who is asking.

Run content work inside the governance the rest of the company already uses.

You bring your own account. The Atlassian integration authenticates with your own account at Atlassian, on your own plan and your own quota. WriteWorks reads the data that account already has access to, and nothing else. Disconnect at any time and the stored credential is deleted.

FAQ

Atlassian integration FAQs

The questions teams ask before connecting it.

What does the Atlassian integration do?+
It connects Jira, Confluence and Compass to WriteWorks: content work is filed as Jira issues, Confluence spaces you share become source material for drafts, and issue status travels back.
Do I need all three products?+
No. Connect the ones you use. Jira alone is common, and Confluence alone works if you only want documentation as source material.
Which Confluence content can it read?+
The spaces you nominate during setup, and nothing else.
How do I connect Atlassian to WriteWorks?+
Open Settings, then Integrations, choose Atlassian, authorise your site, pick the Jira project and issue type, and share the Confluence spaces WriteWorks may read.
Does it work with Jira Service Management?+
Content work is filed to the Jira project you choose. Standard software and business projects are the usual targets for this kind of work.
What happens if I disconnect it?+
The stored credential is deleted and WriteWorks stops reading and writing. Issues and pages already created stay in Atlassian.
