Create and customize persona
-
Go to any Jira project

Click on Supersona in the sidebar, then click on “Create your first persona”.
☝️ Please notice:
Creation of personas requires users to have the editIssue permission for the given project. For editing, users must have the editIssue permission for all projects the persona is assigned to.

When you create a new persona, you can customize it by specifying the profile, avatar, and properties.

Profile
In the profile section, you can specify a name, role, and short biography for every persona. All fields are optional, so you can leave them empty if you like, but we highly recommend at least specifying a name and role (e.g. job title).
☝️ Please notice:
Personas are saved automatically when you make changes.
Properties
The boxes on the right side represent the persona’s properties. Every property has a title and a value and is fully customizable. New personas have four default properties (“Goals,” “Pain points,” “Expectations,” and “Values”), which serve as a starting point, but can be modified at will.
Create a new property
Click on one of the create buttons at the bottom of the property list to create a new property. There are three types of properties:
- Formatted text: formatted multi-line text (including ordered and unordered lists).
- Single-line text: a single line of text.
- Sliders: a slider component for visualizing persona-related data (e.g. job experience)
