Data Center Roadmap
Check out the latest features in Data Center and learn about what we’re working on. Subscribe to receive an email each quarter highlighting our newly released features, updated time frames, and more.
Updated view field configurations - EAP
Save time by easily navigating field configurations in the admin experience.
Add watchers during issue create
Work more efficiently and eliminate unnecessary steps by directly defining watchers in Jira’s issue creation form.
Restrict comment visibility to a group or role
Agents and admins can limit comment visibility in service projects to specific roles or groups, enhancing control over information sharing
Additional details to manage trash within Spaces
Improve Confluence’s performance and efficiently manage your space’s trash with new details about who created and deleted the content.
JCMA - support for Automation Rules for Jira
Migrate your Automation for Jira (A4J) rules from Data Center environments to the Cloud with Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA)
Native Single Sign-On in Atlassian Crowd
Integrate multiple Identity Providers directly with Crowd. This will allow Crowd to serve as the sole integration point with the IdP, acting as a bridge between the IdP and other Atlassian Data Center products. Context: Previously, Crowd offered an Entra ID integration that synchronized users from Entra ID directories, enabling them to authenticate to Crowd. However, this feature required disabling Entra ID’s Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). With Microsoft’s announcement that MFA will soon be mandatory for all Entra ID customers, organizations using this integration must now redesign their setups and adopt native SSO functionality to integrate with Entra ID.
Mobile Jira DC & Confluence DC OAuth 2.0 support
Enhance security, reduce unauthorized access risks, and integrate seamlessly with existing identity providers to simplify user access management. For iOS devices only. For implementation details, refer to the below resources:
File attachments allow and blocklisting
Restrict file attachments globally by creating an allowlist or blocklist of file extensions.
Assets Imports Global View
Assets admins can now conveniently schedule and monitor import statuses for all object schemas in a single location, allowing for easy optimization of import configurations.
Word count
Keep track of the number of words or characters in your page or blog post as you type by using the word count feature located in the bottom toolbar of the editor.
REST APIs (content management)
Admins can manage content at scale, including the ability to script and automate updates to pages and spaces, and other administrative tasks, with additional REST APIs.
Effective permissions
Easily understand a user’s permissions for a project or repository, seeing both explicit permissions and inherited permissions from user groups.
Multiline comments
Add comments and tasks to specific line ranges to improve team communication and streamline your code review process.
Resize images by dragging
Easily resize an image by using the drag handle, located on the side of the image.
Dark theme in Jira - Beta
Choose between Dark theme or Light theme. Alternative color themes to reduce eye strain and improve contrast for better accessibility.
Two-step verification for administrator sessions
Protect sensitive actions by requiring users to re-authenticate with a time-based one-time password (TOTP) when accessing administration screens.
Search index insights
Gain insight into search health through visibility of repository indexing.
Software Bill of Materials (SBOM)
The updated Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) offers an inventory of your Data Center product using mostly backend (and some frontend) dependencies, helping you facilitate a smooth integration into automated security checks and eliminating the need for reactive security scan adjustments.
New font and table background colors
Updated font and table background color palettes including more colors, improved contrast for better accessibility and dark theme compatibility.
Bitbucket Mesh on Kubernetes
Deploy Bitbucket Mesh on Kubernetes clusters using hardened container images and helm chart templates.
ProForma App Now Free for Jira Service Management Data Cente
The ProForma app will be free for all Jira Service Management Data Center customers in 10.3 LTS. ProForma makes building dynamic forms simple, easy, and fast by reducing the need for custom fields or complex Jira configurations.
Support of security keys for Git over SSH
Bitbucket supports two new SSH key types: ED25519-SK and ECDSA-SK designed to work with FIDO2/U2F hardware authenticators. Security keys are a safer substitute for passwords or traditional SSH keys to protect your code, offering a reliable way to improve your security posture and implement multifactor authentication for Git operations.
Single-click to copy links to comments
Easily copy and share links to comments with a new copy link shortcut for page and inline comments.
Profile picture customization enhancements
Customize your profile pictures with the ability to set their initials as an avatar, and rotate and delete their profile photos.
Jira Dark Theme GA
Take advantage of alternative colors with Dark and Light themes, to reduce eye strain and improve contrast for better accessibility.
Guardrails for Automation for Jira
Use data dimension recommendations to identify and manage performance and scale risks.
Asset parallel imports
Carry out multiple import jobs in parallel. With this feature, you’ll no longer have to worry about a critical job not starting on time due to other delayed import jobs.
Local group management in Azure Active Directory
Fully manage groups within Azure AD Crowd directories and delegate group management to other users to reduce overhead.
Space reindexing
Save time by re-indexing a specific space rather than running a full site reindex in Confluence.
Easier management of licensed users
Giving admins the tools they need to identify licensed users and manage available seats and licensing costs.
Secure Network Connectivity between Cloud and Data Center
Securely connect your Atlassian self-managed products with Atlassian Cloud products to ensure smooth collaboration between teams using different deployments.
OAuth2 support
Improve the security and reliability of your integrations with Bamboo’s new tokens and accept requests from external applications using the OAuth2 authentication scheme.
Bulk description edit
Save time when editing descriptions for multiple issues with the new bulk description edit flow, allowing you to edit many descriptions in just a few clicks.
Vertical alignment of table cell content
Align content to the top, middle, or bottom within a table cell.
Create Linked Issue
Quickly link issues between projects from the ‘more’ menu.
JPD integration with Jira Data Center for delivery
Connect Jira Product Discovery with Jira Data Center (DC) to streamline the discovery and delivery process in product organisations using Jira DC. Product Managers will be able to connect ideas with delivery tickets in Jira DC and track the delivery progress.
Jira Board and Backlog performance improvements
Get more out of your work in Jira, especially if you're dealing with slow-performant hardware or network issues with faster page load times for Jira Backlog and Board agile views.
Default Tasks for Pull Requests

Jira Picker performance Improvements
Boost Jira issue creation speed to ensure that performance won’t be affected by a growing number of elements to render.
Pinned comments
Pin comments to highlight important messages to issue participants.
X.509 certificates for code signing
Support of X.509 certificates for signing commits.
OpenSearch support for Jira - EAP
