Coming soon

Removal of value engineering functionality in 11.11

In version 11.11, we’ll remove value engineering functionality from Jira Align. This includes both the value engineering fields found in the Value tab of work item details panels and the value engineering report. These functions were previously designated as end-of-support status, and we’re ready to remove them from the app.

If you have used this functionality in the past and would like to make a record of your entries, please visit the value engineering report prior to version 11.11 to archive your data. You can use screenshots and Save options from your browser to capture the contents of a page.

Future availability of Jira Align API tokens when Atlassian Guard is configured

In version 11.12, we plan on deprecating the Jira Align API tokens when you have configured Atlassian Guard as the authentication method with Jira Align. If you have enabled Atlassian Guard authentication and are using Jira Align API tokens, we recommend that you switch to Atlassian API tokens as soon as you can to prevent any disruptions with your integrations. The Atlassian API tokens offer enhanced security features within Atlassian Guard such as auditing, revoking, and blocking of API tokens.

Q1 2025 roadmap presentation

Check out what we're currently working on in our latest quarterly roadmap presentation. This quarter, we're delivering an async review on the Atlassian Community as we focus on preparations for Team '25. We expect to return to live roadmap calls later this year. 

Enhancements and features

These features for 11.10 were released to environments on the continuous release track on March 28, 2025, in version 11.10.0. The features will be released to environments on the bundled release track on April 11, 2025, in version 11.10.1.

Update on reintroduction of Jira connector sprint sync logic

We have paused the activation of the Jira connector sprint changes previously announced in 11.9.X release notes, as we investigate some reports of unexpected sprint assignment changes in Jira Align.

We are planning to reactivate the feature in a future release with additional changes that will account for the unexpected behavior. Review our full announcement for details on how this uncommon issue can occur, and steps you can take to see if you're affected. 

OKR hub enabled for all environments

We’ve enabled the OKR hub for all environments as the main place for managing and tracking objectives. This includes:

• The sidebar menu option has been renamed from Objectives tree to OKR hub.
• Users will land in the hub with the correct tier, team, and program increment selected in page filters, depending on navigation and sidebar selections.
• A spotlight tour on first visit to refresh how the Tier filter works, and how to access the legacy objectives tree page.

As previously announced, the legacy objectives tree page will be removed in version 11.13.

Review our post on the Atlassian Community for more about the benefits and launch of the OKR hub.

End-of-support status for legacy objectives tree

With the launch of the OKR hub, the legacy objectives tree page has been designated with end-of-support (EOS) status. While the page will remain available until version 11.13, we will no longer file or fix non-critical defects, focusing our development efforts on the new experience.

Removal of legacy pages

As previously communicated, we’ve removed the following pages from Jira Align:

• Admin task status page
• Standup attendance report
