Meet Keychain
Manage time off in Jira seamlessly. Keychain resolves the complexities of Jira delegation without the hassle of bulk reassigning work items (issues).
Keep your workflows running smoothly when team members are out of office. Most delegation tools force you to reassign issues, which clutters your history and breaks reporting. Keychain takes a smarter approach. It lets you grant temporary authority to a delegate without changing the original assignee.
True Delegation Without Data Mess
Avoid bottlenecks without reassigning issues. Keychain acts as a permission layer, unlocking actions for delegates while keeping the original assignee unchanged. This ensures delegations activate instantly without disrupting your issue history and maintains a pure audit log where actions are recorded as usual.
Granular Control with Smart Categories
Advanced Workflow & Policy Automation
Unblock Jira Service Management
Keep your service desk moving even when managers are hiking. Keychain fully supports approvals within the JSM Customer Portal. Delegates can view and approve requests directly in the portal, ensuring SLAs are met without sharing credentials or stalling tickets.
Flexible Admin & Powerful Reporting
Manage unplanned absences centrally or empower users with self-service profiles. Track coverage easily with built-in JQL functions like delegatesOf() to find active substitutes or issuesInDelegation() to build dashboards showing exactly which covering tasks need attention.
