Installation Guide
Installing the Jira PDF Merger DC plugin is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to get started.
Prerequisites​
- You must be a Jira Administrator to install or update apps.
- Ensure that your Jira Data Center instance is compatible with the plugin version you are installing.
- Jira PDF Merger 2.0.0 requires Jira Data Center 11.3 (Java 21). If your Jira site is still on version 10.x, install Jira PDF Merger 1.1.0 instead.
Upgrading from Version 1.1.0​
If you already have Jira PDF Merger 1.1.0 installed and your Jira site has been upgraded to Jira Data Center 11.3, you can install version 2.0.0 by following the same manual installation process below. No migration or reconfiguration of the visibility settings by project/issue type or the default merge action is required: all your configuration is preserved.
If your Jira site is still on version 10.x, do not install version 2.0.0: continue using version 1.1.0 until your platform is upgraded.
Manual Installation (Using a file)​
Once you have downloaded the plugin file (.jar or .obr), you can install it manually:
- From the Manage apps screen, click Upload app.
- Click Choose File and select the plugin file you downloaded.
- Click Upload. The plugin will be installed, and you will receive a confirmation message.
Congratulations, the plugin is now installed! You can now proceed to the User Guide to learn how to use the PDF merging functionality.
