Overview

While the Forge platform is generally available, some modules remain in EAP or Preview. While in EAP or Preview, we may make changes that might break your apps. To learn more, see Forge release phases and Forge deprecation policy.

A module in Atlassian Forge is a component defined in your app's manifest.yml file. It specifies how your app integrates with Atlassian apps by defining properties and behaviors that correspond to specific extension points within these apps. Modules enable you to:

Extend functionality: Add custom features and integrations to Atlassian Cloud apps.
Interact with APIs: Utilize Atlassian's APIs to enhance app capabilities.
Customize user interfaces: Modify and extend the UI to fit your app's needs.

Depending on which Atlassian app you're building for, a number of different modules are available.
