Questions tagged [jira]

Questions tagged with [jira] should be related to interacting with Jira programmatically.

Jira is a proprietary issue tracking product, developed by Atlassian. It's often used to track issues for software development and other teams, and has many apps to support this.

There are two ways to interact with JIRA programmatically:

  1. APIs are typically used when building a Plugins2 plugin for Jira Data Center, which is a single containing code, an app descriptor () and usually some template files to render .
  2. REST APIs are typically used when building Connect add-ons (web applications for Jira Cloud) or configuring webhooks.
