FAQ

Does Access Evidence change permissions automatically?

No. Admins and reviewers remain responsible for permission changes. The app records findings, decisions, remediation status, and evidence.

Can one review include Jira and Confluence?

The documented workflow treats each review as one product scope at a time. Create separate reviews when Jira projects and Confluence spaces both need review.

What goes into an evidence pack?

Evidence packs include review scope, findings, decisions, remediation records, job receipts, and integrity metadata.

Where is data stored?

Access Evidence stores app data in Atlassian Forge app storage and uses Atlassian-managed runtime infrastructure.

Solution

AI Access Governance for Jira

AI-heavy teams and regulated or sensitive-data organizations often already use Jira Service Management as the internal request layer. AI Clearance adds the missing access lifecycle: admins approve AI tools into a requestable catalog, employees request one user access grant for one approved tool, and reviewers track purpose, duration, expiry, fulfillment, and evidence.
