Meridian People & Skills Hub stores its data inside your Atlassian Cloud site, in the storage that Atlassian provides to Forge apps. No skills data is stored on Elevatic servers.
Stored for each person
-
The skills on their profile, each with a proficiency level from 1 to 5
-
Open skill suggestions, in Strict Compliance mode
-
Blocked skills
-
Up to 20 evidence entries per skill. An evidence entry holds the identifier of a Jira issue or a Confluence page and how the person contributed to it
-
The time of their last skill review, which controls when the app shows the review dialog again
Every record uses the Atlassian account ID as its key.
Stored once for the organization
-
The skill catalog, which is the list of skill names in use
-
The profile population mode
-
Internal markers that tell the app how far its scans have progressed
Not stored
-
No text from Jira issues or Confluence pages. The app reads content while it derives a skill and does not keep it
-
No names, email addresses, job titles, or avatars. The app loads these from Atlassian whenever it shows a profile
Because no profile fields are cached, a name or job title that changes in Atlassian is correct in the app immediately.
For what happens while a skill is derived, see Does the app send our content to an AI?.
