Service model reference

Each LaunchPad template comes with three documentation pages covering different aspects of day-to-day use.

The Quick Start Guide covers the template's purpose, its object types and attributes, deployment steps, and practical examples for getting data in quickly. Start here when deploying a new schema.

The Governance Playbook covers ownership responsibilities, data quality rules, review schedules, and lifecycle management. Read this once the schema is live and you need to keep it healthy.

The Forms Specification defines the recommended Jira Service Management portal forms for each object type in the schema. Use this when setting up request forms so that users can create and update records through a standardised interface.


How the catalogue fits together

The thirteen schemas form a hub and spokes rather than a flat list. Core Schema is the hub: it holds the master data (people, teams, vendors, cost centres, business services) that every other domain refers to. The domain schemas are spokes that extend Core, and when you deploy one, each reference back to the hub is resolved in one of three modes: link to the existing Core object type, create a local copy, or keep the value as plain text. See Hub-and-spoke architecture for the model and The three reference modes for the deploy-time decision.

The five categories below group schemas by the job they do. They are organisational labels only and carry no price meaning: LaunchPad pricing is per object across the whole product, whatever category a schema sits in. See Pricing.


Foundation

The hub plus the schemas most environments stand up first. Core Schema is the foundation in the strict sense: the master-data hub every other schema builds on. Standard CMDB and Workforce Management sit in this category because each can act as a foundation when deployed standalone with people created locally via Create here, though the recommended foundation remains Core.
