First steps

This chapter provides information on the features available after installation and guides you through the first steps you should take.

Warning

To follow these guides, you need to have Jira Administrator global permission.

As a new user, you may wonder how to start working with the Queues for Jira Service Management app. Let’s start with a brief description of the main features and process.

UI elements

Once you’ve installed Queues for JSM, following UI elements appear in your Jira:

  • Deviniti Queues Configuration in Jira settings > Apps - where you can decide who can administer the app, set the location and name for the Deviniti Queues UI link, determine who can edit assignees directly from the queue view, and which features are visible to users. You can also decide to share statistics that will help us build better features.
    Note

    On the Configuration page, the app is referred to as Deviniti Queues instead of Queues for JSM for clarity within the Jira interface.

Next step is to configure a queue. You can use Deviniti Queues UI link available in your project or Jira top navigation > Apps.
With navigation options, you’re able to:

  • edit,
  • copy your queue.

Note

The Queues for JSM app also allows you to import queues - both from the project and JSON file. So, if you already have a JSON file or use native queues in other service projects, importing may make your work easier.

Managing queues

As soon as queues are configured, you can:
