You can install Optimizer for Jira Cloud in two ways; through the Atlassian Marketplace (option 1) or within Confluence using the Universal Plugin Manager (option 2).
Important: Both methods will require administrator permissions to install Optimizer on your Jira instance.
Option 1 - Atlassian Marketplace
Access the Optimizer for Jira Cloud product listing on the Atlassian Marketplace and click Try it free.
Next, you need to select the edition of Optimizer you would like (the Standard or Advanced edition) and select the Jira site you wish to install Optimizer in.
You can see a summary of the Advanced and Standard editions is below:
Once you are happy, proceed with the installation by pressing ‘Request app’. This will install the trial version of Optimizer.
Please note that in the trial version of Optimizer, the number of items can be bulk edited is limited to 10 at a time and the number of items that can be affected by a config merge operation is limited to 20 at a time. However, you can still access all of the functionality of Optimizer to evaluate its usefulness. Purchasing a license will remove these limitations.
When your installation it has completed, you will be able to access Optimizer through the Apps drop-down menu in the left-hand side bar Jira, marked out in orange below.
Option 2 - Universal Plugin Manager
Alternatively, you can use the Universal Plugin Manager (UPM) to install Optimizer on your Jira site.
Start by accessing the Apps drop-down menu in Jira and select Explore more apps. Search for “Optimizer for Jira” and navigate to this product once it displays in the search result.
Next, click Try it free followed by Start free trial. Once installed, you will be able to access Optimizer through the Apps drop-down menu in Jira.
Providing Optimizer with access to Jira Cloud
Like many cloud apps in the Atlassian Marketplace, permission is required for them to access appropriate information and function as you would expect.
Upon installing Optimizer, you will likely see the Access Request screen shown below before you begin using the app.
We have had a few customers contact us to clarify why domains like wp.com are listed on this access screen, and this is driven by Atlassian. Atlassian uses a number of third-party domains and subdomains for various purposes, which will display on this Access Request screen if relevant to the app you are using.
For more details about these third-party domains and subdomains, please view the related Atlassian documentation
