Shared Access Layer Developer Documentation

Getting Started

The Shared Access Layer, or SAL for short, provides a consistent, cohesive API to common plugin tasks, regardless of the Atlassian application into which your plugin is deployed. These common services include, but are not limited to:

• Job scheduling
• Internationalisation lookups
• Persistence for plugin settings
• A plugin upgrade framework

SAL is a component of the Atlassian plugin development platform. Start by setting up your plugin development environment. Check our SAL installation guide, then take a look at the SAL services.
