Project Categories

Space Categories (formerly known as Project Categories) are a great way of categorizing Jira Spaces based on their purpose or what team they belong to. Over time, you may want to review the available Space Categories as part of your routine maintenance initiatives.

With the Space Categories smart table in Optimizer, you can now view and manage all these configurations in one place.
