Creating, configuring and managing relations between issues is the key feature of STAGIL Assets - Advanced Links for Jira. Advanced Links are connecting two custom fields and therefore two issues, which contain the connected fields. Connecting issues with Advanced Links offers you many possible use cases, which will be covered in the course of this documentation with a focus on CMDB, CRM and HR.
The main idea of all use cases is to show information between each other, for example, linking devices like laptops, monitors and mobile phones to the belonging person (CMDB use case) or connecting contact data to an organization (CRM). Advanced Links can be configured and shown in graphs/panels/tables. These topics are covered in the following sections. Advanced Links is a powerful enhancement to the standard Jira linking functionality, designed to significantly improve issue management. This feature enables users to link Jira issues with advanced capabilities that go beyond the default linking options.
With Advanced Links, users can view any field of a linked issue directly from the parent issue view. It allows inline editing of custom fields and provides permission controls to manage access to linked issues. This feature also extends its advanced linking capabilities to the Customer Portal, ensuring a seamless and consistent experience across all platforms.
The integration of Advanced Links is seamless, as the link field operates as a custom field following the same logic and format as standard Jira fields. This ensures that users can easily adopt and utilize the feature without a steep learning curve.
