Compatible applications

Good to know
If you're thinking to move to Data Center, check our recommendations first. See: Infrastructure recommendations for Jira.
OAuth 2.0 for your mail server
With Google and Microsoft planning to disable Basic Authentication, we want to make sure you can still add your comments to Jira and create issues using email. We're adding OAuth 2.0 support so that you can use it as an authentication method for Gmail or Microsoft Exchange online instead of password.
Create your OAuth integration, then update your incoming mail server and leave the rest to us. We'll make sure the connection with your mail server works seamlessly. Learn more
User anonymization (GDPR) improvements
Back in Jira 8.7, we introduced user anonymization to help you stay compliant with GDPR. The initial feature came with some limitations that we continue to fix in newer versions. In this release, we have extended the scope of anonymization to include the following items:
Reporters and creators of issue collectors
Full name in the issue history (Assignee, Reporter, Single- and Multi-user picker fields)
- Ability to anonymize users that have already been deleted
If you have already anonymized some users, you can anonymize them again, in which case we’ll take care of the newly supported items and make your users disappear in a puff of GDPR. Learn more
