Installation Guide
Installing the Admin Essentials add-on is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to get started.
Prerequisites​
- You must be a Jira Administrator to install or update applications.
- Your Jira Data Center instance must be compatible with the add-on version you are installing (see Compatibility).
Jira Data Center Compatibility (Multi-Node)​
Admin Essentials is designed to run in Jira Data Center environments with one or multiple nodes. The add-on does not maintain local state on the node and operates stably in clustered high-availability configurations.
Manual Installation (Using a File)​
Once you have downloaded the add-on file (.jar or .obr), you can install it manually:
- Log in to Jira as an administrator.
- Navigate to Administration > Manage apps.
- Click Upload app.
- Click Choose file and select the add-on file you downloaded.
- Click Upload. The add-on will be installed and you will receive a confirmation message.
Congratulations, the add-on is installed! You can continue with the Administrator Guide to start configuring and using the modules included in Admin Essentials.
