By default, our app will appear prominently in the issue view.
Settings overview
When activating the Teams feature, you can jump to the Teams settings in your sidebar. Go to the tab “Settings” and change appearance settings in the section “Appearance”.
Issue content view
This appearance settings is selected by default.
With this view, the MS Teams feature is available at the top right below the issue name.
By clicking on it a new dialogue opens and you you can start a MS Teams chat (or channel conversation) right away.
Quick create area
This view setting can be combined with the “issue content view”. It makes it a bit more comfortable to have some kind of two entry points to start a MS Teams chat / channel conversation in your Jira issue.
In case you have toggled the quick create mode in the settings, the lower area will always display and show a comment-like interface.
This can be helpful, in case you want to transition from comments to Teams communication.
Activity tab
Using this option, the Microsoft Teams area will appear in the bottom, next to the Jira comments and the issue history.
Chat subject templates
Templates are now introduced as separate feature. For more information please see: Templates
You can adjust the subject template to customize your default chat title in Microsoft Teams. Use all available fields of the issue (like lables, or epics) or add plain text. These can be overwritten for each project by the project admin.
The new default chat title will be visible as soon as you start a new chat coming from Jira.
