The Atlassian IntelliJ Connector allows you to monitor, add and update JIRA issues in your integrated development environment.

This page tells you how to add a comment to a JIRA issue from within IntelliJ IDEA. For more about interacting with your issues within your IDE, refer to Using JIRA in the IntelliJ Connector.

To add a comment to an existing JIRA issue:

  1. Select your JIRA server from the dropdown list in the connector tool bar. (See screenshot of connector window below.)
  2. Use the filter and search functions to find your issue. (See Filtering the List of JIRA Issues in IntelliJ IDEA.)
  3. Right-click the issue in the list and select 'Add Comment'.
  4. A dialogue box appears, as pictured above. Add your comment text.
  5. Click the 'Comment' button to append the comment to the issue on the JIRA server.

You can also add a comment to an issue when viewing the issue in the IDEA editor pane. See Viewing a JIRA Issue in the IDEA Editor Pane.
