Jira global page

The jira:globalPage module adds an item in the Apps section of the main navigation.

The page URL is constructed in the following format: /jira/apps/{appId}/{envId}

For UI Kit 1, see the GlobalPage component documentation for an example. When adding this to your app, use it as a top-level component.

Example of a global page

Subpages

By default, the jira:globalPage module registers a top-level page. However, there is an option to register multiple pages using a pages or sections field.

Use pages to add individual pages to the sidebar and sections to group pages.

The sidebar will only change the global page URL, you will need to handle routes inside your custom UI app using view.createHistory().

This feature works only with custom UI.
