Integrating with JIRA

Overview

Integrating with JIRA enables you to:

Create JIRA issues for the entire Actions or any number of individual findings directly from the Actions page.
Create JIRA issues for single or multiple security findings directly from the Backlog page.

Generate an API token from your Atlassian account. See JIRA documentation for instructions.
From the Jit platform, select Secrets in the menu bar under Settings.
Follow the instructions in Secrets to store this API token as a secret.
Select Integrations.
Locate the JIRA tile and select Integrate as-code. You are taken to the jit-integration.yml file. Add your API token and relevant JIRA data to this file. If the option to integrate as-code is not available, you may need to manually addjit-integration.yml to the repo containing Jit's configuration files.
