Frequently Asked Questions About Product Management Platform
Can I control which Rally Workspace and Project work items go to?
Yes. During setup, you map Shorter Loop products to specific Rally Workspaces and Projects. You can also set defaults for Iteration, Release, and Owner, with the ability to customize these fields per work item when pushing to Rally.
Will the Rally integration affect my existing workflow?
No. The integration is non-invasive. You maintain your current Rally workflow states and iteration cadence. We map Shorter Loop stages to your Rally states, so your development team continues working in Rally exactly as before.
Do I need technical expertise to set up the Rally integration?
No coding required. The setup is OAuth-based—authenticate with Rally, select your Workspace and Project, map fields using our UI, and you're ready. Most teams complete setup in 10-15 minutes.
Can executives and non-technical team members benefit from Rally integration?
Absolutely. Non-technical stakeholders can view Release progress, Iteration velocity, and User Story status directly in Shorter Loop without needing Rally access or training. This improves transparency and reduces status update meetings.
