Create a Document

What a document is

A document is a named set of requirements you hand to someone: a developer, a stakeholder, a QA team. Blueprint renders it in several views from the same requirements, so everyone reads the same source.

Create a document

1. In Blueprint, click Documents in the sidebar.
2. Click Add Document.
3. Enter a Title and a Description.
4. Optionally enter an Environment URL (the site the document applies to), a JIRA Project URL and a JIRA URL for the related task.
5. Under Requirements, pick a requirement and click Add. Use the arrow next to Add and choose Add All to include every requirement. Drag to reorder; click the trash icon to remove one.
6. Set the Stage and the Owners (Stakeholders).
7. For a long document, set Number of Parts (new documents only). See below.
8. Click Save.

At least one requirement is required; otherwise you see "Please select at least one requirement for this document".

Split into parts

With Number of Parts above 1, Blueprint creates separate documents titled "<title> - Part 1", "- Part 2" and so on, sharing the requirements between them in order. The batches are sized from the number of parts, so a short list can produce fewer parts than you asked for.

Open a view

In the list, the Views menu on each row opens a view in a new tab. Clicking the title opens the Overview.

Every view is a public link that needs no sign-in. See Public Links.
