Atlassian Jira
Description
Atlassian Jira is a powerful project and issue tracking platform that provides a robust API for accessing and managing tasks, workflows, and development progress across teams. Its API enables seamless integration with external tools to automate reporting, synchronize data, and enhance productivity.
Setup guide
Follow our setup guide to connect Atlassian Jira to Improvado.
Click the Connections in the left navigation bar.
Categories on the Data sources page group all available platforms. Use a search to find the required one.
Click on the Atlassian Jira tile.
Choose an authorization method. Login Password (recommended) asks for the Jira Main URL, Username and API Token — follow steps 3.1 - 3.3 below. Rovo MCP Token is the alternative — it asks only for your Email and a Rovo MCP Token issued by Atlassian Rovo, and needs no Jira Main URL.
Please enter your Jira Main URL in one of the following formats:
https://{your-company}.atlassian.net(e.g.,https://demo.atlassian.net)https://{your-company}.jira.com(e.g.,https://demo.jira.com)https://jira.{your-company}.com(e.g.,https://jira.demo.com)
Use your email address for your Jira account, which you used to generate the API token as the Username.
Generate an API Token by following Atlassian's instructions in this documentation.
After completing the connection process, the Atlassian Jira connection will appear in your Connected sources list.
When the connection status is Active, and the account status column shows a number of accounts, you can move on to data extraction.
To extract data from the connected sources, check the instructions on how to set up data extraction.
