Connect Usersnap with Jira Software

Jira, one of the best project management and issue-tracking tools, can be integrated with Usersnap to provide excellent benefits such as streamlined issue tracking, improved collaboration between teams, and increased efficiency.

Usersnap can connect to your Jira Software and Service Desk projects via Jira Cloud or Jira OnPremise.

Here's how it works:

Go to your Usersnap project’s Integration tab and select Jira Software from the grid.

Choose the kind of Jira Software installation you have, Jira Cloud, Jira Cloud (quick connection), or Jira Server.

The differences between Jira Cloud and Jira (quick connection):

• Jira Cloud is our updated integration which benefits from Jira Forge (a development platform that allows for the creation of secure, scalable apps and integrations within Jira). This means that you can enjoy powerful features such as the two-way sync statuses and setting up new fields! Please refer to our Jira 2-way sync guide for more info!
• Jira Cloud ( quick connection ) is our old Jira Cloud integration that doesn't benefit from Jira Forge and doesn't support 2-way sync status and new fields.
