Opening Power Retro for the first time

  1. After installation accessing Power Retro is really easy. Finding and clicking Apps → Power Retro in the header of Jira will open the Dashboard. Through this page the user can easily Add Projects to the Dashboard for further use.

    1. Activating projects individually is also possible through <project> → Project Settings → Power Retro.

  2. After a project has been set up configuring Project Permissions should be the next step

  3. The last step before actually having a Retrospective Event is to Create a Retrospective board on the Dashboard or through the Jira sidebar of a project.
