This changelog is the source of truth for all changes to the Forge platform that affect people developing Forge apps.
See what's next for Forge on our platform roadmap.
We're excited to share that Forge, our app development platform for Atlassian cloud apps, is now generally available. You can rely on Forge's hosted infrastructure, storage, and FaaS functions to support apps in production; all of which are backed by Atlassian's operational readiness. Learn more about building the next Marketplace hit with Forge.
Note that some functionality in Forge remains in beta while we're still making changes that may break your apps. Learn more about the current functionality in beta.
You can now deploy Forge app builds directly via the developer console.
Selecting Deploy build from the actions menu next for the build you want to deploy.
Select the environment to which you’re deploying the build to.
Note, app build deployment permissions adhere to the existing permission structure for app contributors.
We have fixed an issue in how compute usage was calculated for async events and scheduled triggers in Forge apps.
This change was rolled out progressively between Dec 17, 2025 and Dec 19, 2025. As a result, affected apps may now report higher compute usage than before. This reflects more accurate tracking of the resources consumed; there is no change to the actual behavior or performance of your apps.
If you have alerts, monitoring, or internal reports based on Forge usage metrics, you may want to review them to account for this correction.
Logs automatically generated by the Forge platform during remote invocations (not logs generated by the app itself) are removed. The following platform-generated log statements are impacted:
Making remote request: When remote invocation is triggered
Successful remote request: When remote invocation was successful
Failed remote request: When remote invocation fails
These logs will no longer be visible on the logs page in the developer console or in the logs CLI command. As a result, they are excluded from usage calculations and billing.
Developers utilising Forge remote will notice a reduction in their logs usage starting today.
To maintain visibility into remote invocations, we will be introducing success and failure information via metrics in the near future.
You can now use UI modifications with Jira Service Management (JSM) request create portal view. This is an extension of the existing jira:uiModifications module, allowing you to change the look and behaviour of JSM request create portal view. The module is designed to be used in conjunction with the UI modifications (apps) REST API.
For more information, see the JSM UI modifications module documentation.
Support for response streaming is now available in Forge LLMs. The new stream function in the @forge/llm SDK allows apps to process outputs as they are generated rather than waiting for the complete response.
Forge LLMs remain in Early Access (EAP). Due to high demand, participation is limited. To request access, join the waitlist here.
For implementation details, refer to the documentation here.
As part of the Forge platform pricing effective from Jan 1, 2026, we have introduced usage alerts. Developers will automatically receive notifications when the usage of any billable capability in the Forge app reaches key thresholds— at 50%, 75%, 90%, and 100% of free monthly usage allowance.
The following UI Kit components are now generally available:
Comment, which displays discussions and user feedback.
Pressable, which is a primitive for building custom buttons.
CommentEditor, provides a contained comment editor UI with a simple toolbar.
ChromelessEditor, provides a simple text editor that does not have a toolbar.
For more information, see the component documentation.
To access these components, you will need to update your app to the latest version of @forge/react. In the terminal of your project directory, run:
npm install --save @forge/react@latest
Currently, the new workflow editor is the default editing experience in Jira and is being used by the majority of customers.
Starting 26th June 2026, we will begin removing the old workflow editor for customers, which means workflows will only be editable in the new workflow editor. We ask you to please help your customers in this transition by ensuring that any workflow-related apps will work effectively with the new workflow editor.
If you encounter any issues with how your apps behave in the new workflow editor, please raise a support ticket.
Some features to be aware of to improve app experiences in the new editor:
Dynamic configuration descriptions (Forge/Connect)
Make sure to provide a unique description for configured rules.
Additional context (Forge/Connect)
Determine whether the rule is loaded in the new or old workflow editor.
Default workflow editor for user (API)
Determine whether a user has a preference set for the new or old editor.
Deep linking to statuses and transitions
Link to the new workflow editor and provide an ID with either the selectedStatus or selectedTransition query params to pre-select a status or transition.
Forge usage invoices for December 2025 will be generated on January 1st, 2026, and all usage during December is fully discounted. This allows you to experience the complete billing flow, including adding a payment method, reviewing usage, and receiving an invoice, before Forge pricing changes take effect on 1 January 2026. See the Atlassian blog for more details about the upcoming pricing changes.
This release includes:

We’ve added the module bitbucket:workspacePersonalSettingsPage to Forge. You can use this module to build a custom workspace settings page. For more information, see Bitbucket workspace personal settings page.
Following the Preview release, the forge build command is now generally available. You can use this command to bundle and upload builds of your Forge app and deploy them across multiple environments.
App builds created using this command are also visible in the Forge Developer Console under Builds.
For more information, see the Forge build command documentation.
Following its EAP release, Forge bridge rovo API is now available in preview.
The Forge bridge rovo API contains the rovo.open method, which allows you to open the Rovo chat sidebar and create a new conversation with either a default or specified Rovo agent.
