πŸ“‚ External Share & Public Links

External Share & Public Links logoExternal Share & Public Links for Jira lets you share a work item, a board or a saved filter with people outside your company through a public link. They read it in their browser, without a Jira account or license.

Get started: install the app, set a sharing policy and send your first link in about 10 minutes.

What you can share​

LinkViewers getCreated from
Work itemOne work item, with the sections and fields you pickThe work item's Actions (β‹―) menu
BoardThe board's columns and cards, the active sprint and, if you choose, the backlogThe board's More actions (β‹―) menu
FilterA live table of a saved filter's resultsApps > Share Public Link

Each link can have a password and an expiry date, its own theme, and a comment box for viewers. You can turn it off at any time. Unlike Jira's anonymous access, nothing else in the space becomes public: see Native Jira anonymous access.
