JIRA

JIRA is a software development tool for agile teams to plan, track, and release world-class software. Connecting JIRA issues to the rest of your tools helps break down barriers and unleash the potential of your team.

Prerequisites

To use this integration, you will need a Jira account.

Obtaining Credentials

For authentication, you need to use an API token. To get a token, go to this link.

Known Issues and Limitations

• Basic authentication with passwords is deprecated. For more information, see jira API documentation.
• JIRA Server behind a firewall or with REST API disabled is not supported.
• When creating a connection to JIRA Cloud, you need to use a valid email address for username. Otherwise, the connection will not be established, although it looks like it's successful.
• Usernames in JIRA Cloud are deprecated and cannot be used anymore for fields such as Reporter. For more information, see Atlassian Cloud documentation.
• As per the Jira API documentation, jira API returns maximum 50 projects, so top 50 projects will be listed under dropdown in actions/triggers.
• Pagination was implemented on Get projects. It will return all projects.
• The Create a new issue (V2) action supports only simple field types such as 'string', 'number', 'date', and 'datetime' in the dynamic schema. If project configuration has a required fields of complex data types, the operation will fail with the error: "Field '{key}' of type '{type}' is not supported". To workaround this, please change project fields configuration and make these fields not required.
• The Project property expected by the connector's actions and triggers should be filled using one of the following options:
  • Pick a project from the project picker. Note that JIRA Cloud connections show only top 50 projects in the picker.
  • Use an output from the Get projects action (project's Project Key property).
