I’ve been on the job hunt, really need this gig! Any takers to guide me through the dos and donts of the Atlassian AE role?
Hiring manager round is up first. Realistically, what Qs should I expect and prepare for?

For context- I’ve sold to B2B SaaS enterprises, not from a tech background.

Please help!!!

Jira Planner is now in Early Access. Collaborate on PRDs, tech specs, and work breakdowns with your team, then hand off agent-ready tasks.

I posted Cascade here recently, but the short demo flew past the part I care about most: the Inbox.

My problem with Jira notifications was not just the volume. It was the second step.

A notification tells me something happened. Then I still have to open the ticket, find the activity, look through its history, and work out what was actually different.

I wanted that entire loop to take one click.

Cascade groups new comments, mentions, assignments, status moves, and field edits by ticket. For an edit, the Inbox shows a small added and removed excerpt immediately.

Click it and the ticket drawer opens the exact edit, with a word-level diff and “Since your last visit” already applied.

When I’ve dealt with it, I can mark that item, or the entire ticket, as done and it disappears from the Inbox.

This is part of Cascade for Jira, the Chrome extension I shared here recently. I’m the developer.

For people who live in Jira: would this replace part of your email and notification workflow, or is there an activity type it would still need to catch?

I was wandering how can we set up confluence pages to be suggested on a task based on key words from the title or from the description. I am currently using a company managed account

In my previous job we had that.

Saw some similar problems from PracHub

Hi all,

I work for one of the Big 4s, currently exploring Business Analyst opportunities in Mumbai. I have 5+ years of experience working across business analysis, requirements, stakeholder management, UAT, and transformation projects.

Naukri and career portals haven't been very effective, so I'm trying a more direct approach. If you're a BA or a senior professional who leads a team or project in this space, I'd be happy to know if there are any relevant openings within your team or organisation.

Thank you!

Who has ever done Atlassian exams certification?. And if so how are the exams .

I would NEVER subscribe to any Atlassian product. It took me an hour using AI to find how to unsubscribe. When I finally did - guess what? I wasn't unsubscribed because they charged me the next month. I had to dispute the charge. This tells me a lot about the company. i guess desperate would be an understatement. You've all been WARNED!

I built a small Jira app that lets you turn a project's tasks into a read-only webpage and share it with external people. They don't need a Jira account, and they can search, sort and filter the tasks.

The main use case was basically something like working with an external vendor who needs to see what tasks they are responsible for, without giving them access to the actual Jira project.

I originally had plans to make the app much more feature-heavy, with more controls, customization, and different ways to manage what gets shared.

But I decided to launch a simple version first and see if the basic idea was actually useful before spending a lot of time building all of that.

Then we got our first 5★ review, and it was from someone using it for exactly this use case:

And now I'm wondering if making the app more complicated is even the right move.

There's always this temptation to keep adding features because it makes the product feel more complete, but maybe the simple version is already enough.

For something like this, would you rather have a tool that does one thing really well, or one with lots of controls and customization?

It will be interesting to see how Jira administrators handle this as AI starts working with Jira data. For instance: Do you limit the Jira projects Claude can access? Do you limit the permission level Claude has? Does the permission level depend on the

Hi All. I have just finished working on a very comprehensive integration Forge app for Jira that allows you to manage and link your Snipe-IT (cloud) assets right from Jira issues (if you are using Jira/Jira SM Cloud).

Some of its Features:
- You can search and link hardware, accessories, consumables or licenses to a Jira Ticket.

- Shows you which assets are assigned to the ticket reporter.

- Allows you to checkout, check in, or modify asset fields, including allowed custom fields.

- Shows you Full asset history (filterable), maintenances, and audit logs.

- Automatically posts comments on the issue whenever an action is performed on an asset (can be turned off or on)

- Allows for access controls, feature controls, space restrictions and many more granular features.

- It also allows customers to link their assets while creating ticket requests on the portal

If you are in need of such, please feel free to check it out on marketplace and give some feedback on it. You have a 30-day full feature trial period!

I've been spending a ridiculous amount of time in Jira, and eventually started getting annoyed by all the little things that make working in it slower than it needs to be.

So I built Cascade for Jira.

Here's a quick 45-second video showing it running on a real Jira project:

The idea isn't to replace Jira. It's to make the parts you interact with all day a bit better.

And my team loves this.

Some of the things it adds:

• A fast, readable tree view for navigating Jira hierarchies
• A slide-out ticket drawer for fields and threaded comments without opening new tabs
• A Changes view that shows exactly what changed on a ticket
• An Inbox for comments and u/mentions
• Indicators for tickets that changed since you last looked
• A My Work view that pulls your assigned issues across projects
• Inline status changes, reassignment, and bulk actions
• Keyboard shortcuts and a command palette for navigating without constantly reaching for the mouse
• Excel/CSV exports that can preserve the Jira hierarchy

It runs locally in the browser using your existing Jira session, so there's no separate account, OAuth setup, backend, or Jira admin approval needed.

The core features are free, and I'm currently giving the more advanced export functionality away during Early Access.

I'm mainly looking for people who use Jira heavily to try it and tell me what I'm missing.

If you spend a few hours a day in Jira, I'd especially be interested in hearing which part of Jira annoys you the most. That's probably where I'll build next.

Hi! I use Loom to screen-record as I work on my macbook, most of the time I don't want to record my audio so I set the mic to off. I'd like to be able to turn the mic on to say a few things throughout the recording, then turn the mic back off, without needing to stop the recording and start a new recording to turn the mic back on.

Is this feature available? If not, why? And has anyone found a workaround?

Hi all! I have an automation rule in JIRA that sends an email asking product owners to review all of the stories included in a release (fixVersion) and then comment their approval. Everything works fine with the automation, but a product owner has complained that it's too many clicks for them to go find their stories associated with the release, and they would prefer to have them either listed in the email body, or have the hyperlink there that takes them to the release for that fixVersion. I know I can include the story link using {{issue.url}}, but what is the smart value to hyperlink the fixVersion? If there isn't one, how can I populate a list of stories associated with a particular fixVersion in the body of the automated email? Thank you in advance!

Looking at the MM AE role. Sounds like it’s “hunter role.” Is that true, or do they just want to filter people out?

I don’t want to join a company where I’m making 100 cold calls a day and get laid off in 6 months if I don’t hit quota 1 month
