Umano works with the tools you use everyday in order to capture the your team’s activities across the whole development process.

...

  • Communication tools (like Slack and Mattermost)

  • Source code management tools (like GitHub and Bitbucket)

  • Project managements tools (like Confluence and JIRA)

Umano obtains data from these tools on a daily basis, producing daily scores for developers, teams, and projectsscores across a range of measures that provide insight into your team’s agility and health of their practices.

In this section, you’ll learn about the tools supported by Umano, and how to connect your data sources to Umano

...

Umano will need read-only access to your cloud delivery tools so you can select your project’s source data from within these tools that will contribute to your team’s project space. We ask for the minimum privileges needed to perform the necessary behavioural analysis and insight generation for your team’s project space.

You can find out more about how Umano respects and handles your data by reading our Data Privacy and Security page pages.

A recap on requirements

Umano currently supports teams working with the cloud versions of JIRA, Confluence, Bitbucket and Slack.

To create your team’s project space on Umano, it is a requirement that your team uses Jira Scrum or Simple Boards to support your delivery practices. We use this as the foundation to automatically set construct the construct of a team’s project data and contributors as we create for your project space. Data from all other connected tools will then be assigned accordingly.

Teams using these nominated Jira Boards and who apply the Kanban method can also create your team’s project space on Umano. Once you’ve connected your boards, we’ll be in touch to ask what iterations you’d like us to preset for you, be it that you work in a weekly, fortnightly or monthly cadence. This feature is soon to be automated.

  1. JIRA and Confluence credentials are provided with API Tokens. This is because we need access to your Jira Software Board, and is the quickest way for you to provide Umano this access.

    • We ask you fetch a unique API Token within Atlassian’s API Tokens Management page.

    • We also provide a 3 step tutorial with more detailed instructions on how to do this.

    • Copy your API Token from Atlassian’s Token Management page and paste it where prompted in Umano’s Add a tool step for connecting a new Jira Software Cloud Instance.

    • Your API Token will also allow you to connect to a Confluence (Cloud) instance associAted with your account. You’ll be asked to Add Confluence if you would like to.

    • Umano will confirm that you have successfully connected to Jira Software (Clod) and Confluence (Cloud) if you also provided access to this tool.
