Plugin Exchange
1. The Atlassian
Plugin Exchange
Find and share Atlassian plugins
2. Agenda
• Goals
• Where we’ve been
• The Plugin Exchange
• The Plugin Exchange Manager
• Questions
3. Goals
Strengthen the Ecosystem
• Make it easier for users to find plugins
• Make it easier for plugin developers to get
plugins out there
4. The problem
Good plugins are hard to find
• Scattered around different Atlassian and third party
sites
• Infrequently updated, inconsistently displayed
• Little or no feedback for user reviews, amount of
usage, etc.
10. Other Changes
• A single repository for all product plugins
• Plugin xml etc no longer served by legacy repository
• Developers no longer have to worry about editing
XML metadata in SVN
• Confluence.atlassian.com (CAC) still used for
documentation, not for primary plugin browsing
• Interaction with the Plugin Exchange Manager…
11. Plugin Exchange Manager
• Universal plugin manager for all Atlassian products
• Interacts directly with Plugin Exchange Server to
query for available plugins, compatibility, etc.
• Allows you to browse Plugin catalog from within the
application
• Users see the same content, ratings, reviews and links
that are in PAC. Authors only have to maintain one set
of data.
13. What’s Next?
• Ship Plugin Exchange Manager in products
• Take your feedback, improve Plugin
Exchange website
• Long term - allow commercial plugins to sell
directly from the Exchange
• studio.plugins.atlassian.com
