Global Configuration

FOLIO's Global Configuration allows you to specify basic configuration settings that will provide default configuration values for new Folios you create. To access FOLIO's Global Configuration screens, navigate to Administration > Add-ons and then locate the FOLIO section in the navigation bar on the left. You must have JIRA administrator permissions to access the Global Configuration.

 

Note

Modifications in the Global Configuration won't affect existing Folios. The Global Configuration is only used at Folio creation time.

Jira Agile Integration

To be able to create folios associated with a Scrum or a Kanban board, FOLIO needs to be connected with JIRA Agile. By default, FOLIO automatically detects and attempts to connect with JIRA Agile when starting up. If for any reason FOLIO fails to connect with JIRA Agile, you can manually trigger the connection by clicking the Connect now button.
