Jira Setup

To connect to Jira using this activity package, you must first create the credentials required by the Jira Scope to authenticate all subsequent calls. The scope currently supports the API Token authentication:

  • API Token: An authentication token is generated by Jira for your user. This method supports fully unattended automations.

API Token​

  1. Follow Atlassian's instructions to generate an API token.
  2. Add a Jira Scope to your workflow.
  3. Enter the Access Token in the Input properties with the token generated in step 1.
  4. Enter the Instance URL property with the URL of your organization's Jira instance. For Cloud instances, this is usually in the form of https://<your org>.atlassian.net.
    Ex.: https://hyperthread.atlassian.net.
  5. Enter the User Email property with the email you use to log into the designated Jira instance. The Jira Scope is now ready for use.
