Jira is a project management software product developed by Atlassian that allows teams to track issues, manage projects, and automate workflows.

Connected data

Connecting Jira will give Windmill access to the following:
  • read:me
  • manage:jira-webhook
  • read:account
  • offline_access
  • read:jira-work
  • read:jira-user
  • read:workflow:jira

Username mapping

Jira uses specific usernames that don’t always map to employee email addresses. If you see Jira activities that aren’t associated with a team member or are associated with the wrong team member, Windmill Admins can fix this. To update username mapping:
  1. Go to Settings in Windmill
  2. Select the Connections tab
  3. Select Jira
  4. Select the Mapping tab to see all usernames and their current mappings
  5. Click Update mapping to edit assignments

Permissions

All roles can connect Jira. You just need an account to connect Jira.

FAQs

If Jira activities aren’t appearing for you or your team members, check the username mapping in Settings > Connections > Jira > Mapping tab. Jira usernames might not match email addresses, so they need to be manually mapped to the correct employees.
