Some business processes require the involvement of people out of your organization. For example, the hiring process needs additional information from candidates; salespeople should work with partners from other companies, etc.

Given this challenge, we have released the new functionality that gives Forms and Checklists for Jira users the ability to create a form and share it with people using the direct URL.
To do so, follow the instruction below:
  • Open a Forms and Checklist add-on and create the form you are going to share.

  • Then create the Jira issue and add the form, you’ve just created

    Sharing a form with external users from the issue is used to provide a link to the form, allowing external users to access it and submit a response. This method restricts users to submit only 1 response and also provides the option to associate the form with a specific Jira issue. Users are given a time limit of 1 month to complete the form.
