Documentation for JIRA 5.0. Documentation for other versions of JIRA is available too.

To install a plugin from the Atlassian Plugin Exchange:

  1. Select 'Administration' > 'System' > 'Plugins'. The 'Universal Plugin Manager' (UPM) will be displayed, showing the plugins installed on your JIRA site.
  2. Click the 'Install' tab in the UPM. You will see a list of featured plugins. To search for other plugins, enter some keywords that describe the plugin in the 'Search the Plugin Exchange' search box and press 'Enter'.
  3. Click the 'Install' button for the desired plugin. A confirmation message and the plugin details will appear when the plugin is installed successfully.
    (info) Note: You may need to restart JIRA for your change to take effect. The Universal Plugin Manager will inform you if this is the case.
    (info) Note: Not all plugins can be automatically installed. Some require manual installation. These plugins will have a 'Download' button instead of an 'Install' button. In these cases, you should read and follow the plugin's installation instructions.
