Deliver Showstopping Service Experiences:
A host of updates will help supercharge teams to provide exceptional support to employees and customers:

- Low-code / no-code and embedded forms. Users will have the ability to connect forms deeply within other parts of Atlassian products like Trello, Confluence, or even Atlas.
- Enhanced employee portal view. Gather and present useful information and links together into topics on the front page of your help center. From knowledge base articles in Confluence, actions in Workday, getting started guides on YouTube, and from Jira Service Management.
