Short Description

Use Application Links (AppLinks) to link your JIRA, Confluence, FishEye, Crucible and Subversion applications. You can even choose to associate individual projects, spaces, reviews and repositories with each other. You can then use shortcut links within each application. The application will 'know' automatically which space, project or repository the link is referring to.

Full Description

What is Application Links?

Application Links (AppLinks) is a plugin that allows you to link your JIRA, Confluence, FishEye, Crucible and Subversion applications. You can even choose to associate individual projects, spaces, reviews and repositories with each other. Then, when you add text into one of the applications, you can refer to a page, issue or source file using just a simple textual reference. You do not need to enter the full URL. The text is automatically linked to the correct project, space, review or repository.

An Example
  • Let's say that your JIRA installation has a project called myProject.
  • Let's also say that your Confluence installation has a space called mySpace, which contains all the documentation for myProject on JIRA.
  • Using AppLinks, you have linked myProject to mySpace.
  • Now, you can add the following markup to a JIRA issue in myProject: [Test Page].
  • JIRA will automatically display the text with a link to the Confluence page called 'Test Page' in mySpace.
