Easit GO connector for Jira

The Easit GO connector for Jira makes it possible to create and search for Jira issues from Easit GO. Once a request in Easit GO have been connected to a Jira issue, updates made in Jira updates the request in Easit GO.

Capabilities

Create Jira issue from Easit GO

From Easit GO you can trigger the creation of an issue in Jira. The Easit GO request ID is sent together with the configured fields to the connector. The connector then translates Easit GO fields to Jira fields and creates a new Jira issue. Jira then returns the Jira ID and key, which the connector updates the Easit GO request with along with a link to the Jira issue.

Update Easit GO request from Jira

When an issue is updated in JIRA, the connector retrieves all the Easit GO IDs that are linked to the JIRA ID and then updates all linked Easit GO requests.

Search Jira issue from Easit GO

By using the function External search service in Easit GO you can search for an existing issue in Jira, either by Jira ID, Jira key or free text search. When an issue is found in Jira it will be connected to the Easit GO request, and that Easit GO request will receive updates from the connected Jira issue.
