Releases

Kanban support has arrived in Execution Mode, making Agile collaboration more seamless than ever. This new feature allows teams to start managing their work in a fully Jira-synced Kanban board.

You’ll find the Utilities menu in the lower-right corner, making key board functions like adding sticky notes, scaling, zooming, and the new Pan Mode easier to access. With Pan Mode, effortlessly navigate your board using the hand icon or by holding the spacebar and dragging. Selecting multiple sticky notes is now smoother, too. Plus, the Plan vs. Execution switch is now right next to your profile for quicker toggling.

Clicking on the logo in the top navgiation opens your org structure and allows you to switch easily your PI sessions

Canvases can now be copied from one session to another. That allows you to create templates and re-use them in future PI sessions.

You can now assign work items on a risk board to a person.

You can now link any sticky note to another within the same PI session, allowing for better cross-team and cross-ART (Agile Release Train) collaboration. Easily link stories within or across teams, as well as to features in other ARTs, with an improved UI that includes team and type filtering plus full-text search for streamlined navigation.

The Connection Status Page is designed to provide better insights and help diagnose connection issues more effectively.

Easily track changes on sticky notes with the new Board Activity Compare feature. Compare any two points in time—such as Now vs. Last Workday, Now vs. Start of Iteration, or Now vs. Start of PI—to view updates on attributes and actions taken on each sticky note, providing clear insights into recent activity and progress.

A new "Assignee" field on sticky notes now allows you to assign users directly within the app. The assignee syncs seamlessly with Jira and Rally, displaying user IDs and enabling easy edits. This update enhances collaboration by linking ALM user assignments to piplanning.io.

piplanning.io is now fully compliant with Section 508 and WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility standards! This update ensures an improved experience for all users, including those with disabilities, by enhancing keyboard navigation, screen reader support, color contrast, and more.

We added a Profile menu in the RTE Cockpit, where you can see some of your personal information. Here, you can change your name to the one you want your colleagues to call you. And here you can also change your password.

It is possible to archive a PI Planning session. This allows you to cleanup the list of available sessions to choose for users in the app.

piplanning.io now allows you to force login via SSO only and prevent the usage of username and password for your users. This allows for secure, centralized and easy user access management. To do so you can check the box 'Prevent credential login / SSO only' on the IDP setup page.

You can now enter the team names separated by a space in the Cockpit.

Now you can also use the CSV import to bring links between sticky notes with an ALM key to the Program Backlog Board and the Team Boards.

Under organization in the menu on the left you can now add your ARTs to a Solution under "Solution Trains".

If you click on “Organization” in the menu on the left side and then navigate to the tab "Solution Train" you will find a list of all your Solutions.

If you click on “Organization” in the menu on the left side and then navigate to the tab "ARTs" you will find a list of all your ARTs.

Now it’s possible that you can use shared sprints. What does that mean? If you have one sprint configured in Jira but multiple teams use this one sprint you can now configure it with the new team-mapping field.

We optimized the way you can manage your teams under ALM team mapping. Now can edit team by team and this way you have a much better overview.
