Tech Thursday
Bridge project management with structured knowledge using the OpenProject Integration (Pro)
Why it matters
Projects generate a lot of knowledge.
Requirements change. Decisions need to be recorded. Technical choices need explaining. Teams create meeting notes, specifications, release information, and lessons learned as the work moves forward.
OpenProject manages the work. XWiki organizes the knowledge around it.
The OpenProject Integration (Pro) brings both together.
It lets you display relevant OpenProject work packages into XWiki pages, so project information can appear alongside the knowledge that gives it meaning.
You can use it to:
- Connect project work with your documentation.
- Filter and display the right work packages for each page.
- Keep project information visible where your team needs it.
In this session, you will see how the OpenProject Integration (Pro) works in XWiki and how to configure it for practical project documentation workflows.
Webinar Agenda
Displaying work packages in XWiki
Add OpenProject work packages to XWiki pages as tables, cards, or individual items, with the fields and views that make sense for your documentation.
Linking documentation and delivery work
Link XWiki pages to OpenProject work packages so documentation stays connected to the work it supports.
Creating work packages with the right context
Reuse page information to create action items and other project content with prefilled context, reducing manual entry and keeping workflows consistent.
Visualise project progress with charts and dashboards
Check the global progress of ongoing projects or define custom views through the versatile chart macro and the dashboard functionality.
