Bring your Jira Product Discovery ideas into Zentrik with their statuses and scores, then rank them against what customers tell you.
The import reads Jira and never changes it, so your team can keep Jira Product Discovery open until the switch is done. Zentrik and Jira Product Discovery compared covers what each tool does and what each costs.
Before you start
- Connect Jira from Settings → Integrations → Jira. See Zentrik + Jira.
- Add the idea statuses your team wants to keep. Each Jira status maps to one of them. See Idea statuses.
Import your ideas
- In Discovery, open Ideas and choose New → Import ideas…, then Jira.
- Choose the Zentrik Product, and Idea under Import as.
- Choose the Jira Product Discovery Jira project and its Issue type. Narrow by creation date, or use Tags to bring a subset; each tag shows how many items match.
- Map each Jira status to a Zentrik idea status, and choose a Fallback status for anything unmapped.
- Map the fields you rely on: Impact score and Effort score, Map products from for a field that names the product, Map accounts from for a field that names the customer, and Create Discovery field for other fields worth keeping.
- Import.
What comes across
Each idea arrives with its title, description, status and the scores you mapped, linked to its issue in Jira. Zentrik then estimates each idea’s impact and effort and ranks it beside your calls, tickets and other customer evidence.
Run the import again to update the ideas it brought and add new ones. It moves an idea’s status only while the idea still has your default status, so your team’s triage in Zentrik stays.
Import every day while you switch
Workspace owners and admins can import on a schedule from Settings → Integrations → Jira. Set the source, map every status, run the first import and check its results, then enable the import and turn on the daily schedule. Daily imports come with the Team, Scale and Enterprise plans.
What stays in Jira Product Discovery for now
Comments, insights and votes stay in Jira Product Discovery. Each imported idea links to its issue there.
When a team is ready to run its delivery in Zentrik as well, Move a team from Jira brings its issues, sprints and epics across.
