What is the process for add ons to become available for on demand ?

[Ben Iggulden]

Hi,

We're Atlassian on demand users of JIRA, Confluence, Bitbucket and Bamboo.  We were hoping to make use of the Cucumber add on for Bamboo.  But discovered that it "cannot be installed on this OnDemand instance".

I was wondering what the process is for add on approval/migration for use in OnDemand ?  Is there anywhere we can vote for this one, for example ?  Or perhaps estimate a possible timeframe for availability ?

I've marked the question specifically about Bamboo and the Cucumber add on.  But the question is really about the add ons/on demand process and could equally apply to our other on demand applications.

Thanks,

Ben

Unfortunately 3rd party add-ons are still not supported in Bamboo Cloud - Utoolity's Tasks for AWS is also affected by this policy, please see our resp. FAQ Will Tasks for AWS be available for Bamboo Cloud (Atlassian OnDemand)? for more details on the background and state of affairs, which conceptually also apply to Hindsight Software's Cucumber Report Plugin add-on:

[...], Atlassian doesn't allow classic add-ons to be installed in their cloud offerings for security and scalability reasons, rather only those build with the new add-on framework Atlassian Connect - ironically Connect doesn't yet support Bamboo in turn, so we cannot do anything about it at this point and rely on Atlassian closing this gap first [...]

Please watch/vote/comment on the following issue to raise awareness for this increasingly relevant limitation:

Any news on AWS Tasks for Bamboo Cloud? I'm setting up several new projects at our company and it would be great to have this capability. Otherwise, is it possible to hack around this by installing the AWS command line tools on the Elastic agent and using script tasks to automate AWS tasks?

For the Cucumber add-on, I think you could approach the plugin provider to finder out if they have plugin to have it for Cloud. Just follow the link under the Support tab: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.hindsighttesting.behave.cucumber-bamboo-plugin

As for Cloud add-ons policy and approach, you can visit this page: https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/add-ons-and-plugins-744721612.html

@Abdoulaye Kindy Diallo - thanks for chiming in. However, your answer is a bit misleading in terms of Bamboo Cloud add-ons not being available at all right now due to Bamboo Cloud's lack of support for Atlassian Connect, so no add-on vendor cannot do anything about it until Atlassian finally tackles this long standing severe limitation. Furthermore, the Cloud add-on policy page you reference used to at least explicate this restriction, but the relevant information for Bamboo has been removed during the rename from OnDemand to Cloud (IIRC). I'd be happy to upvote your answer if you get this fixed ;)
