Setup ​

  1. Install the app. In YouTrack, open Administration → Apps and install Pulse from JetBrains Marketplace. Installing apps requires the Low-level Admin Write permission.
  2. Pick a project. Use an existing project or create a new one for the blog. Its articles become the blog content.
  3. Configure Pulse. In the app settings, set Blog Project to that project. Optionally set Blog Name, which replaces “Pulse” in the header, for example “Acme Blog”.
  4. Create blogs. Add root-level articles to the project, one per blog: “Engineering”, “Product”, “Company news”.
  5. Write the first post. Open Pulse from the YouTrack main menu, choose a category and click Write. The YouTrack article editor opens with the new post placed under that blog.

Until a project is selected, Pulse shows a reminder to finish the setup.
