What is Documents app?
Documents for Jira Data Center is a Document Management System (DMS) that allows storing your files in Jira in an easy, structured and secured way.
The app makes the documents quickly accessible for the project members, extending the Jira projects by adding a new tab named "Documents". On this tab the project members can post and access the documents related to the project along with their metadata.
The flexible folders hierarchy allows you to efficiently organize the posted documents. The multiple layouts and visualization modes assure an easy navigation.
The users can link documents and folders to Jira issues (and vice-versa), thus making them available in their work-items via Jira issue screen of the standard and next-gen projects.
Why Documents app?
Makes the documents quickly accessible for the project members.
No more project-related documents stored on people’s workstations. Everyone will know that the latest version of a specific document will be found on the Documents tab of the project.
The documents are hosted in Jira providing common interface for all the project related work-items such as tasks, issues and documents.
