Atlassian developer changelog

This page contains announcements and updates for developers from various products, platforms, and programs across Atlassian. It includes filter controls to make it easier to only see updates relevant to you.

To ensure you don’t miss any updates, we also provide RSS feeds. These feeds will take on any filters you applied to the page, and are a standardized way of keeping up-to-date with Atlassian changes for developers. For example, in Slack with the RSS app installed, you can type /feed <FEED URL> in any channel, and RSS updates will appear in that channel as they are posted.

Added Check your Connect-to-Forge migration progress in CLI

Adopting Forge from Connect

We’ve released the new adoption-status CLI command that analyses your manifest.yml and shows:

  • How much of your app has been migrated to Forge

  • Which migration requirements are complete

  • What remains to be done before you can finish your migration

Run the command

From your Forge app directory, run:

1 npx @atlassian/connect-to-forge@latest adoption-status

No installation is required.

If your manifest is in a different location, specify its path with the --manifest option:

1 npx @atlassian/connect-to-forge@latest adoption-status --manifest path/to/manifest.yml

For detailed information about the command and its output, see https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/adopting-forge-from-connect/adoption-status-tool/.

Added Developer Console now displays build tags used for deployments and environments

Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

The Forge Developer Console now provides visibility into build tags for your deployments. This update allows you to:

  • Identify if a specific tagged build was used for a deployment.

  • See if the most recent deployment to an environment used a tagged build.

To view the build tag for a specific deployment:

  • Navigate to the Deployments tab in the Developer Console.

  • Select the menu button and click more info under the actions column for the desired deployment.

To view the most recent tagged build for an environment:

  • Navigate to the Environments tab in the Developer Console.

  • Click on the date shown under the Last deployment column.

Announcement Forge bridge invoke can now return metadata

Connect - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

The Forge bridge invoke method now supports an optional metadata argument. This allows you to receive additional information about an invocation, such as rate limiting details, alongside the response.

What's changing
When you pass a metadata argument into the invoke function, it returns an object containing both a body field (the invocation response) and a metadata field. Any supported field set to true in the metadata argument will be returned within this metadata field.

Currently, rateLimitProperties is the only supported field in the metadata. This allows you to monitor rate limiting information for your invocations to better manage app performance and reliability.

Example usage:

1 2 3 4 5 invoke('getText', { example: 'my-variable' }, { rateLimitProperties: true })  .then(({ body, metadata }) => {    // Log metadata for debugging purposes    console.log(JSON.stringify(metadata)); }

What you need to do
If you want to access invocation metadata, update your invoke calls to include the third metadata argument and handle the new response structure ({ body, metadata }).

Existing calls to invoke without the metadata argument remain unchanged and will continue to return the response body directly.

For more details, see the Forge bridge invoke documentation.

Announcement Connect End of Support (EOS) date extended to January 31, 2027

Adopting Forge from Connect
Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

What is changing?

We are extending the Connect End of Support (EOS) date from December 2026 to January 31, 2027. This extension is intended to give partners and developers additional runway to complete their migrations without overlapping with end-of-year activities and annual planning cycles.

For more information, please read https://www.atlassian.com/blog/development/getting-ready-for-connect-end-of-support

Fixed Fixed delay prop rendering a visible spinner in @atlaskit/spinner

Library - Atlaskit

The delay prop in the Spinner component from @atlaskit/spinner now keeps the spinner fully hidden until the delay elapses. Previously, a spinner with a delay painted a static, complete circle for the entire delay window before the fade-and-spin animation started, so short-lived loading states showed a stationary spinner instead of nothing.

No code changes are required. Apps that pass a delay to Spinner will see the intended behaviour after upgrading to the latest version of @atlaskit/spinner: nothing renders during the delay, and the spinner then fades in and spins as documented at https://atlassian.design/components/spinner/examples

Deprecation Notice Deprecation of confluence:fullPage and jira:fullPage modules

Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

We are deprecating the confluence:fullPage(Preview) and jira:fullPage(Preview) modules on Sep 30, 2026. These modules are being replaced by the new global:fullPage(Preview) module, which provides a unified way to create immersive, full-screen experiences for your Forge apps across Atlassian products.

The global:fullPage module is based on the same underlying infrastructure as the product-specific modules, so you can expect a consistent experience with minimal migration effort.

What you need to do
To ensure your apps continue to function correctly, you must migrate to the global:fullPage module before the deprecation date.

  • Update your app manifest to use the global:fullPage module.

  • Define the compatibility property in your manifest to specify which Atlassian products your app requires.

  • Update any internal routing or links to use the new URL format: https://<site-hostname>/apps/full-page/<installation-id>/<route-prefix>/<app-route>.

For detailed migration steps and configuration options, refer to the global:fullPage documentation.

Added Forge Teamwork Graph API can now be called from app frontends

Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)
Teamwork Graph

What's changing
The Teamwork Graph API can now be called directly from Forge app frontends (UI Kit and Custom UI) as part of the Teamwork Graph EAP. This is enabled via the new Forge bridge API, requestTeamworkGraph().

Previously, Teamwork Graph queries could only be executed from the Forge backend using @forge/api. This update allows you to fetch unified context across Atlassian products directly from the client side, reducing latency and simplifying app architecture.

What you need to do

  • Update the @forge/bridge package to the latest version in your app's frontend directory:

1 npm install @forge/bridge@latest
  • Ensure your app has the required permissions in manifest.yml:

For Jira: read:graph:jira
For Confluence: read:graph:confluence

For more details on implementation and available data, see the requestTeamworkGraph documentation and the Teamwork Graph API guide.

To participate in this release, you must be enrolled in the Teamwork Graph EAP.

Announcement Scheduled maintenance - Forge platform (commercial)

Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

The Forge platform will be undergoing maintenance in Commercial production on August 5, 2026 between 4am - 7am UTC.

There should be a few minutes of downtime within this window. During this time, the following capabilities will not be intermittently available:

  • Creating, updating, or deleting apps

  • Deploying apps

  • Installing, uninstalling, upgrading apps

App invocations will continue to work for existing users of the apps. However, new customers may be unable to use apps as consent process will be impacted during this interval as well.

Early Access Manual packaging for Forge functions and UI Kit modules

Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

You can now package Forge functions and UI Kit modules manually through Forge’s Early Access Program (“EAP”). This allows you to bypass the fixed version of Webpack bundled within the Forge CLI and upload your code directly from specified directories without modification.

What's changing

With manual packaging, you can:

  • Use a different compiler or TypeScript version

  • Use alternative bundlers (such as Vite or Esbuild) or no bundler at all

  • Include and call WebAssembly in your application

  • Require data files or depend on packages that do

  • Reduce application size by sharing dependencies across multiple functions

What you need to do

Sign up for the EAP using the registration form.

Announcement Direct outreach to Connect and Forge app vendors ahead of the End of Support deadline

Adopting Forge from Connect
Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

Over the coming weeks, if your Marketplace app is still running on Atlassian Connect, you can expect to receive a direct ECOHELP ticket from us.

Why we're doing this: Jan 31, 2027 marks end-of-support for Connect. We want to make sure every vendor has had a direct, personal heads-up with enough runway to complete their migration.

Who will receive a ticket:

• Group 1 — Connect apps (no Forge manifest at all)
• Group 2 — Forge apps with remaining Connect modules

What we'll ask:

  1. Leave a comment and fill in the short survey at the top of the ticket

  2. Complete your migration before Jan 31, 2027
    The description also covers what to do if you're already migrated, in progress, or planning to discontinue — plus links to the migration guide and developer community.

Added New Forge manifest schema addition for browser storage access

Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

Forge Custom UI: Browser Storage Access support

Forge Custom UI apps can now opt in to the Storage Access API by declaring in their manifest.yml.

1 2 3 permissions: sandbox: - "allow-storage-access-by-user-activation"

When enabled, the app's iframe will include the allow-storage-access-by-user-activation sandbox attribute, allowing the app to request access to unpartitioned cookies via the Storage Access API (document.requestStorageAccess()) after a user gesture. This is useful for apps that need access to browser storage in contexts where third-party storage is blocked by default.
Requirements:
• App must opt in explicitly via the new allowStorageAccessByUserActivation permission

Added Forge Container services are now available in Developer Preview

Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

Forge Container services are now available in Developer Preview. You can package your Forge app's backend as a container image to support long-running, resource-intensive workloads directly on Atlassian's hosted app platform.

Container services let you bring your own runtime and dependencies while keeping Forge's security and deployment model. They're eligible for the Runs on Atlassian program, including support for data residency.

What's new

  • You can define a container service in your app's manifest.yml and deploy it alongside your existing Forge functions using the Forge CLI.

  • Container services support any language or runtime that can be packaged as a container image, provided the image complies with the image security guidelines.

  • Services are deployed across multiple Atlassian regions to support performance and data residency, with instances provisioned only in regions where your app is installed.

Get started

Usage of Container services is metered and billed. Container services use a reservation-based model. See Forge platform pricing for details, and review the available cost optimisation techniques to manage your running costs.

The Forge shared responsibility model has been updated to reflect the responsibilities that apply to apps using Container services. Review it before deploying to production.

See the Forge Container services reference for the full manifest schema, supported resource limits, regional behaviour, and image requirements.

Added Forge LLMs (Preview) now supports Claude Opus 5

Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

Support for Claude Opus 5 model is now available in Forge LLMs. For the exhaustive list of supported models, refer to our documentation here

Added Global full page module in Preview

Forge - Core Platform (excludes product REST APIs)

The global:fullPage module is now available in Preview. This module allows you to create immersive, full-screen experiences for your Forge apps. This module is accessible via the following URL: https://<tenant-name>/apps/full-page/<installationId>/<route-prefix>/<app-route>.

This module is equivalent to the existing confluence:fullPage and jira:fullPage modules. Please migrate any apps on the existing confluence:fullPage and jira:fullPage modules to this global:fullPage as product specific fullPage modules will be deprecated.

For more information, see the documentation (Preview)
