Getting started for service project admins

Welcome to Jira Service Management for admins! In this tutorial, we'll introduce you to your workspace and walk you through the process of setting up a service project for your team of agents and a corresponding customer-facing site (which we call the customer portal).

We'll be focusing on basic Jira Service Management features and tasks to help you get up and running quickly. By the end of this tutorial, you will have: 

  • Set up 1 service project

  • Added 3 agents

  • Prepared your customer portal to receive customer requests

Let's take a quick look at Jira Service Management...


Audience:

  • Service desk administrators
  • Team managers

Time: 30 minutes

Queues 

As an admin, you will set up and configure queues for your agents. Your agents will then view and work on issues from the same tab: 


Reports 

Use the Reports tab to view your team's workload. You can also set up custom reports to track your team's progress in more detail:


Project settings 

Here, you will set up request types, brand your customer portal, link your service project to an email account, and manage users:


Customer portal 

This link lets you navigate the customer view of your service project:

Customer Portal. The portal will be seen by customers when they access your project.



Now that you're familiar with your service project workspace, you can set up your own Jira Service Management site and add your first project. 

Let's go!
