Today we are launching the private beta of the Released Product Hub.
The Product Hub brings all your product roadmaps and release notes into one central place. Whether you’re improving communication with internal teams or customers, keeping everyone in the loop is easier than ever.
How does it work?
Once enabled, every Jira instance gets its own Product Hub at https://yourinstance.releasedhub.com. You can list your Portals there and easily publish your release notes and roadmaps. This means you no longer need to embed your release notes before sharing them, making it much easier to get started.
You can see our Product Hub here: https://released.releasedhub.com
What’s in the beta?
Product Hub and Portal design settings
You can customize the color scheme, logo, and description for your Product Hub and Portal pages. The settings from the Portal will automatically apply to the Page and Widget embeds, so you won’t have to set them up separately in three different places.
A new theme
The Portals in the Product Hub look a bit different from what you’re used to. We wanted to give them a design that’s more unique. But don’t worry—if the new style isn’t quite right for you, you’ll be able to switch to a more familiar theme in the next few weeks.
New publishing settings
We’ve made it easier to publish by combining the page and widget embed options into one channel called Portal. When you publish to the Portal, your post will show up both on the standalone portal and in the embeds. Think of the page and widget embeds as different views of the Portal, so publishing is now simpler and quicker.
What’s coming soon?
Access control
The main feature missing is permissions. We are building the ability to make Portals private, restricted or publicly accessible. Those permissions will also carry through to the embeddable views.
Custom domains
While releasedhub.com is a neutral domain, we know that using your own domain looks much more professional when communicating with customers. We will work on custom domains right after the initial release of the Product Hub.
