    Docs overview

    Product managers, team leads, and team members associated with EAP teams can store and manage information at the Agile Structure level and work level (Epic, Capabilities, and Features).
    • Each planning item or team in EAP can have a separate doc to capture the information related to it.

      For example, for an Epic, you create Docs for high-level business objectives or technical product requirements. Similarly at the team level, you can use Docs to capture the information related to team details, Scrum calls, iteration summaries, and so on.

    • Each planning item or Agile Structure level can have multiple Docs associated with it and each Doc can have multiple pages to help you effectively organize key artifacts. Also, the Agile Structure can organize these pages into multiple documents.
    • Predefined templates such as Iteration Retrospective, Marketing Plan, Meeting notes are available. Create pages for your Doc using one of these templates or start with an empty page. You can also create or modify the templates according to your requirements.

    The following are the key features of Docs:

    Real-time collaboration within EAP Docs

You can choose to show or hide these live presence indicators based on your preference while working on or reviewing the content of the page.Real-time collaboration in EAP Docs.
