Overview
Jira Issue Panels allow you to configure and customize the AssetIT panels displayed in your Jira issues. These panels help streamline asset management directly within Jira, providing access to essential AssetIT resources and tools.
The available panels include:
Asset Booking: Allows users to request assets directly from AssetIT within Jira issues. (Refer to the Asset Booking guide)
Linked Assets: Enables linking of any resources from AssetIT to Jira issues for quick reference and management.
Resources Embedded: Displays detailed information on all resources assigned to a selected user (default is the Issue Reporter) within a Jira issue.
