Welcome to Discord for Jira - the app that links your favorite issue-tracking tool directly to Discord. If you’re tired of jumping between Jira tabs, emails, and Discord chats (or if you’re just looking to simplify your workflow), we’ve got your back.
First things first: What’s Jira?
Jira is Atlassian’s powerful tool for managing projects, tasks, and bugs. Software devs, support teams, and project managers around the world rely on Jira - it keeps everything tidy, clear, and under control.
💡 Quick fact: Over 300,000 companies worldwide trust Jira. Yep, that’s a lot of bugs squashed!
Discord - Not Just for Gamers
Discord started as the go-to app for gamers, but quickly became the chill place to collaborate for teams, businesses, and communities. It’s intuitive, fast, and, let’s face it, makes work conversations feel less like…work.
💬 Did you know? Discord now has over 500 million users. Clearly, they’re doing something right!
Why combine Jira and Discord?
Individually, they’re great. Together, they’re legendary:
- Stay updated instantly: Jira issues, comments, and status changes drop right into Discord.
- Support just got easier: Customers or team members can submit and track tickets without leaving Discord.
- Easy issue creation: Create Jira issues directly from Discord with handy slash commands.
Stuff you’ll actually use (we promise):
- Custom notifications: You decide exactly which Jira updates go to your Discord channels - issues created, comments added, and more.
- Slash commands: Use simple commands like
/createor/searchto manage Jira issues right from Discord. - Ticket Panels: Embed easy-to-use ticket buttons in Discord. Just click and boom - a Jira ticket is born!
- Instant issue details: Mention a Jira issue key (
PROJECT-123) and get instant details right in Discord. - Organized threads: Automatically create a neat Discord thread per Jira ticket - no more messy chats.
- Smart automation: Use Jira Automation to pull helpful Discord info (usernames, channels, threads) straight into Jira issues.
