With Moqups' integration for Jira Cloud, Atlassian customers can use the full spectrum of Moqups functionality – including Team and Project management – within the Atlassian ecosystem.
Moqups for Jira Cloud works seamlessly with your current Moqups account. That means you can embed existing Moqups projects – or create new projects – within your Jira issues. You can edit designs in-place, share projects between Jira and Confluence, and update content in realtime.
And, no matter where your team members create, embed, or edit their Moqups projects, the data automatically syncs between your Atlassian and Moqups accounts – eliminating back-and-forth, and providing an up-to-date, reliable source of truth.
Who can use this feature?
You need a Team or Unlimited account to connect to an Atlassian instance. No additional purchase is required.
You can find out more about the Moqups for Jira Cloud app on our Atlassian Marketplace listing.
The following article explains how to install and configure Moqups for Jira Cloud (for Atlassian Administrators), and how to work with Moqups from within Jira issues (for all Jira users).

Add Moqups project to Jira
Add a Moqups Project from within a Jira issue
Once you’ve located and opened your Jira issue, there are two ways of adding a Moqups Project from within that issue:
-
Click the Add Moqups Project button
-
Click the More button and select Add Moqups Project from the dropdown menu
No matter whether you use the button or the dropdown, you will then have the choice to either:
-
Create a new Project
or
-
Add an existing Project
We explain both of these choices below:
Create New Project from within Jira issue
To create a new Moqups project from within a Jira issue:
- Click the Create New Project button to open the Moqups Project Created window
- You can choose to replace the default Project Name with one of your own
- Click the Edit Project button
- You will automatically be redirected to the Moqups app where you will have full access to the Moqups features – and can start working on your project
- The newly created project will be saved within your Jira issue – and in your Moqups account as well. Now, you can access the project from either your Jira or your Moqups account, and all changes to the data will automatically sync between the two accounts.
- When you are done working on your project, simply close the Moqups tab
Add an Existing Moqups Project to Jira
Once the Add Moqups Project Window opens, you’ll be able to browse through all the existing Moqups projects in your Moqups account; this includes projects created from within Jira, as well as projects created – independent of Jira – by your Moqups team. No matter what kind of project is listed in your Moqups account, it can quickly be attached from within Jira!
To add an existing Moqups Project to Jira:
- Click on the thumbnail of the project that you wish to attach
- Click the Add button
- The project thumbnail will now appear within your Jira issue
- If you want to view or edit the project, follow the instructions directly below
