Ever had a brilliant idea or spotted a pesky bug mid-conversation on Discord? No need to jump over to Jira - you can quickly create issues right from your Discord chat! 🚀 Here’s how it works:
✅ Before You Start (Quick Check)
Just a couple quick things first:
- Your admin needs to enable issue creation for your Jira project.
- You might need to connect your Discord account first to have the issue created under your name.
📝 Creating an Issue from Discord
Type /create
in any Discord channel linked to Jira. You’ll get a simple prompt asking for a few details:
- Project: Select your Jira project from the dropdown.
- Issue Type: Choose what fits best (Bug, Task, Story, etc.).
- Summary: Write a short, clear title.
- Priority (optional): Set urgency.
- Assignee (optional): Enter the Jira user’s display name (not their Discord name!).
Next, you’ll see a handy Discord modal:
- Quickly double-check your details and optionally add an issue description for clarity.
Hit Submit - and voilà, your Jira issue is live!

🚨 Quick Tips
- Use Tab and Arrow Keys to move swiftly between fields.
- Priority and Assignee are optional, but they help your team prioritize work effectively.
- Remember, the Assignee field expects a Jira user’s name, not a Discord username.
