Share Jira Work Items and Boards instantly — no licenses or accounts required

It’s ideal for teams that need to provide fast, selective access without managing users or configuring permissions. Every time a Work Item or Board is shared, a new unique link is created, granting access only to that specific content.

How it works

  1. Open the Jira Work Item or Board you want to share
  2. Go to Issue Actions
  3. Select Share Public Link
  4. Send the link to the recipient

Anyone with the link can view the Work Item or Board content without logging in to Jira.

Security by design

Built entirely on Atlassian Forge, the app runs within Atlassian’s cloud infrastructure and never sends data to external services. There is no data egress outside the Atlassian ecosystem, ensuring enterprise-grade security, compliance with Atlassian standards, and full protection of your Jira data.

Typical use cases

  • Client collaboration — Share bugs, feature requests, and statuses with clients without giving them Jira access, improving transparency while avoiding user management overhead.

  • Vendors and contractors — Give designers, developers, or QA contractors access to specific Work Items or Boards only, without adding them to projects or configuring roles.

  • Customer support and escalations — Send customers a direct link to the relevant Work Item or Board to reduce back-and-forth and keep everyone aligned on progress.

  • Executives and stakeholders — Share key Work Items, risks, or blockers without exposing entire projects or Jira boards.

  • Incident response and postmortems — Quickly share live incident Work Items or Boards with external responders, then reuse the same links in reports and postmortems.

  • Cross-company collaboration — Work with partners or other organizations without syncing Jira instances or creating external accounts.

  • Documentation and reporting — Embed public links in wikis, runbooks, and reports so readers can access up-to-date information without Jira access.

  • Audits and reviews — Provide temporary, read-only access to relevant Work Items or Boards for auditors or reviewers, without creating user accounts.
