Use case benefits

Display Jira comments in Confluence

Create knowledge base articles or FAQs that include detailed instructions from a support agent by inserting the ‘last comment’ variable onto your template. Embedding Jira comments onto new Confluence pages with Elements Publish will help you quickly build out an entire library of how-to’s and FAQs. 

Use a Confluence blueprint or design a custom article layout

Insert the key data from your JSM request, like the last comment, into standard Confluence templates like the How To and the Troubleshooting templates Or a custom template your team created. You can also design your article layout directly in Elements Publish. Blueprint or custom layout: your new knowledge base articles can look great.

Control how you trigger article publication

Depending on the process that works for your team, you can let agents choose when they create a new knowledge base article, or set it and forget it so there’s no extra step for agents. Elements Publish recipes can be triggered manually, as a post-function on a transition, or by any of the triggers in Automation for Jira thanks to our public REST API.
