Jira Connector General Availability

We’re excited to announce the general availability of the Jira Connector. You can use the connector specifically to light up the new Jira Extension, or use it to bring general work data into Visier to drive insights into Development teams. For more information, see Jira and Visier Extensions.

Jira Extension

As part of Visier Extensions, the Jira Extension allows you to integrate data and insights about the software development cycle into your instance of Visier People. The Jira Extension includes prebuilt core content with foundational metrics through which you can load and validate your data. With the Jira Extension, you can gain insights into the performance and capacity of your development team, support budget planning, and stay on schedule for important deadlines. For more information, see Visier Extensions.

Visier Extension Setup Wizard

Getting started with Visier Extensions is now easier than ever! We’ve enhanced the data setup process by launching a helpful guided wizard and integrating a new Studio Assistant and concept automapping for seamless configuration. This streamlined experience simplifies setup so you can quickly start getting valuable insights from your data. For more information, see Set Up Visier Extensions.

Note:  

  • Your organization must also opt in to AI features to use concept automapping.

Multi IdP Support

We now support single sign-on with multiple identity providers (IdPs), giving you greater flexibility when signing in to Visier. For more information, see Set Up Single Sign-On.

Data Job Validation

We added the following enhancements for data engineers to validate data loading jobs:

  • Access to a job’s Processing Issues tab (previously ESL Issues) to troubleshoot all processing issues in failed jobs in a single overview.
  • Additional error messages for:
    • Invalid mapping extraction rules, unmapped mandatory properties, invalid mapped columns, and missing sources in the mapping.
    • Invalid business rule and multi-subject rule formulas.
    • Processing issues during the job.

For more information, see Processing job issues in Data Validation.

Note: Data is required for this feature.

APIs

What's new

Batch Process Webhooks

Use webhooks to register your own HTTPS endpoints with Visier and listen for specific events. When these events occur, Visier sends an API request to your registered endpoint. For example, you can create a webhook to monitor job status events with Visier. Visier sends a success or failure notification to your registered endpoint after the job completes. For more information, see Webhooks API.

Data Modeling CRUD API

We added new APIs to create, retrieve, update, and delete the following objects in Visier:

  • Leveled and parent-child dimensions
  • Process concepts and process concept metrics
  • Vee sample questions

For more information, see Dimensions API, Concepts API, and Data Model API Code Samples.

Vee

What's new

Vee Copilot Integration

Vee is now integrated with Microsoft Copilot. Organizations using Copilot can access Vee's valuable data-driven insights by asking questions directly within the Copilot interface, bringing the power of Vee into their daily workflow and streamlining information access.

Note: Limited Availability This feature is in limited availability. If you are interested, please contact your Customer Success Manager.

Datasets and Enrichments

What's new

Improved Job Standardization

The Standardized Occupation algorithm now delivers more precise job matches. This update improves the reliability of your analytics and reduces the impact of poorly matched jobs. When there is not enough evidence for a confident match, occupations will now be categorized as unmatched. Unmatched jobs can be manually matched to a Standardized Occupation in Studio. For more information, see Override a Standardization Match.

Updates to Visier's Job Taxonomy

Job descriptions have been improved for many consultant jobs outside of traditional consulting firms.
