Find and list Jira projects faster

When your site has dozens of projects, the project switcher is not enough. Admins and leads need a single place to search, filter, favorite, and see lead/category/status across everything they can access.

01 — The gap

Why project discovery is slow on Cloud

Jira’s built-in project list and switcher work for a handful of projects. With many teams, categories, and archived leftovers, people waste time scrolling, guessing keys, or asking in chat “who owns that project?” Spreadsheets drift out of date the day after you export them.

02 — What buyers usually want

Filters, favorites, and cross-project visibility

  1. Search by name or key without leaving the directory.
  2. Filter by category, type, or lead so portfolio views stay useful.
  3. Favorite the projects you touch every week instead of hunting them again.
  4. See status and lead at a glance — who owns the project and whether it is active.
  5. Export when you need a CSV for a review — without maintaining a second source of truth.

03 — Tooling

Project Directory for Jira

Project Directory for Jira is a Forge app that puts every project you can see into one searchable table or card view on Jira Cloud. It is not a replacement for Jira admin project settings — it is the directory view people expect when the switcher is no longer enough.
