Go2Group Releases Plugins for Customizing JIRA Fields

After recently releasing four reporting plugins for Atlassian's JIRA, Go2Group is announcing additional JIRA plugins for field customization and integration with internally deployed solutions.

These plugins have been tested internally and successfully deployed within our customer's environments.

• Issue Hierarchy Display
  This plugin is a combination of a custom field and an issue tab panel. In the customized field you can define an issue's place within an issue hierarchy by entering a parent issue ID. The issue tab panel will then display a graphical view of the issue hierarchy.
  

• Task ID Field
  This field shows the real-time status of a task from a project management system. (The tasks are created by our custom Create Task Servlet.)
  
  
• Customer Priority Field
  This field shows a priority (score) calculated from customer customized information fields.
  
  
• Last Change Field
  This field shows the last entry from the change log. Read more on the Atlassian JIRA Extensions space.
  

These plugins are available today and are fully customized for your environment. For more information, please contact us.

Go2Group Announces Reporting Plugins for Atlassian's JIRA

Go2Group is releasing four reporting plugins for JIRA, Atlassian's immensely popular bug tracking, issue tracking, & project management software. These plugins have been tested internally and have successfully been deployed by a number of our customers.

• Report Engine
  This plugin is an interface to the DataVision report engine. Once this plugin is installed, reports created in DataVision can be easily added to JIRA, allowing for more comprehensive reporting, particularly at the manager level, without the need to create new custom report plugins.
  
  
• Completed Projects Graph Report
  This report displays a histogram of completed issues per project over time, where the definition of 'complete' is given by business logic. The user can specify the histogram interval.
  
  
• Project Status Report
  This report lists several statistics (both inherent and calculated) about certain issues. It focuses on sub-task status.
  
  
• Search Attachments Using GDS
  This report uses Google Desktop Search to search attachment content. This approach has the advantage of doing the attachment indexing in a separate process, avoiding high memory use in JIRA.
  

These plugins are available today - for more information, please contact us.

JIRA/salesforce.com Plugin Defends Against Ajax Vulnerability

We recently saw the news from CBRonline discussing the potential danger of using Ajax in passing data between applications:

By exploiting JavaScript hijacking vulnerabilities, attackers would be able to, for example... gain access to any data that could be sent them via an Ajax app.

The JIRA/salesforce.com plugin, developed by Go2Group, was designed with security features to defend against this exact scenario. Go2Group's servlet ensures that requests ONLY come from the salesforce.com application over an encrypted (SSL) connection.

If you have additional questions, please contact us.
