Since the 2.0 version, a hight customized version of the former Siemens's Polarion Subversion Web Client is bundled with the plug-in. It is automatically deployed and configured by Subversion ALM to work fully integrated with JIRA out-of-the-box:


Some of the customizations of the former Polarion tool are:

  • Able to run as Jira plugin
  • Multi-domain support (the  Subversion repositories can be located anywhere)
  • Revision graphs (as much powerful as the graphs porived by TortoiseSVN!)
  • Commits calendars 
  • Displaying Jira issues (bi-directional integration)
  • Original diff and document viewers replaced by the ones provided by Eclipse Orion (originally developed by IBM)


The Web Client is a full web application and it can be accessed from the Subversion menu on the JIRA Jira  top action bar:

The Subversion top menu is displayed if the user has

enough privileges (just the same required to show the Subversion tab on the issue and project pages).


The users can log out from the Subversion Web Client at any time by clicking on the logout link at the top right of the view. It will show the login view and the users can choose any registered repository from the Repository combo box:

The combo box is populated by Subversion ALM with the names of all the registered repositories.
The repository Id is shown beside the repository name. This is very useful in order to use the JQL functions as many of them required the repository Id as input parameter.

Subversion Web Client in Standalone mode

By default, all the users have to login JIRA prior browsing on Subversion . This behavior can be changed from the plugin configuration view:
Image Removed
If the SVN Web Client requires JIRA Session attribute is set to false, then the plug-in does not validate any JIRA session allowing browsing on Subversion to any user logged in Subversion. In this mode, Subversion ALM can be used as by no Jira users too because it is a pure Subversion web client and users have not be aware about JIRA. The Subversion Web Client can be accessed from the following URL directlydeployed on Jira instead of the Java app server (like Tomcat, etc) directly. Apart from this, there are no other relevant differences from the end-user perspective.

In order to access to the built-in Subversion Web Client (AKA Polarion), type the following URL from your browser:


<your JIRA base URL>/plugins/servlet/svnwebclient/
