Integration with Jira

Presenter plays nicely with most Jira integrations - for both Jira Cloud and Jira Server / Data Center.

Links to Jira issues display similar to how they are displayed on the Confluence page: You get the icon, key, description and status.

Confluence Cloud with “external” (as in “different domain”) Jira instances only:

For the Jira issue information to show in the presentation, the Jira instance has to be correctly connected as an Application Link - please follow this guide.

Jira Tables​

Jira issue tables in Confluence pages are displayed as expected in the Presentation.

Roadmaps​

The Roadmap integration differs between Cloud and Data Center / Server.

Cloud​

Jira Cloud Roadmaps cannot be embedded in 3rd party apps. This is a security setting we cannot influence. Best thing we can do is detect embedded roadmaps and insert an illustration linking to the actual roadmap in Jira:

Data Center​

Advanced Roadmaps for Jira on the Data Center and Server editions work as expected, rendering as an iFrame inside your Presentation with full interactivity:

As a Roadmap requires quite some space, consider activating the 16:9 slide ratio theme option.

Issue Charts​

Charts simply work as expected.

Cloud Only: Issue Calendar and other “widgets”​

Widgets (only existing in the Jira Cloud Editions) do not work. Unfortunately, we do not even receive additional info, just the text that “Widgets do not work”.

info

Pro Tipp: Use the “Hide in presentation” and “Show in presentation” macros to offer an alternative to your users, like a direct link to the widget in Jira.

Data Center only: External Gadgets​

Slide Presenter supports external gadgets, which means that all typical Jira dashboard widgets can be presented. Learn more at External Gadget Support on Data Center.

Slide Design Tip: Jira integrations need space on your slides​

Jira issue tables and Roadmaps require quite some screen estate, in contrast to typical presentation content.

Therefore, we recommend using a theme in 16:9 format when displaying these kinds of content.

💡 Consider creating two separate themes:

  • One for Jira-heavy presentations with 16:9 for that extra space
  • One without 16:9 to keep the more refined look of narrower slides for normal presentations
