Session #1: Super-charging Agile & DevOps workflows with Forge by Neil Mansilla

Developer Productivity is top of mind for many software teams these days, and Jira’s flexible workflow engine allows teams to streamline workflows to improve the efficiency of their developers. But in the age of Artificial Intelligence, wouldn’t it be great if Jira workflows were a bit… smarter?

Imagine if you could build a Scrum workflow that could validate that a Story is actually a well-formatted user story. Or a Kanban board where Work-In-Progress limits are’t just red columns, but actually block transitions if too much work is in progress. Or a DevOps incident workflow that orders a cocktail for the incident manager after a stressful incident is resolved.

Well it turns out, you can! In this session, we’ll show you how to expand Jira’s workflow capabilities by building your own custom workflow conditions, validators, and post-functions using Atlassian’s Forge platform.

Forge apps run in the Atlassian Cloud, and the development platform is available on all editions of our cloud products. Though this presentation will involve a small amount of code, Forge is a “low code” platform accessible to any technical team member who has a passing familiarity with JavaScript. Jira users, admins, scrum masters, developers, and other technical team members with a passion for Agile or DevOps will get the most out of this talk.

Attendees will walk away with:

the skills to implement custom workflow conditions, validators, and post-functions using Forge

a practical set of ideas for enhancing their own teams' Agile & DevOps workflows

an introduction to the capabilities and opportunities available via the Atlassian Forge platform
