Atlassian's JIRA is an issue tracking application, which can be used to manage projects and associated work. JIRA integration with FishEye can be set up by using the bundled Unified Application Links plugin.

Before You Begin

Ensure that you configure your JIRA instance to enable sub-tasks and allow Remote API access. We also recommend that you enable unassigned issues.

Integrating your JIRA Server with your FishEye Server

To integrate your JIRA server with your FishEye server, you will need to do the following:
Note, the links in the instructions below point to the Application Links documentation.

  1. Create an application link between JIRA and FishEye. See Adding an Application Link.
  2. Configure authentication for the new application link. See Configuring Authentication for an Application Link
  3. Create entity links for the mappings between your FishEye repositories and JIRA projects, as desired. See Adding an Entity Link.
    • If you want to show issues in your FishEye activity streams, navigate to your application links and click 'JIRA settings' next to your application link to the JIRA server. Tick the 'Include in 'Activity Streams' checkbox and click 'Save'.

The Application Links Quick Start Guide provides an example of setting up an application link.

Known Issues

If you elect to use Trusted Applications for authentication with your JIRA server, activity streams will be generated using the currently logged in user. However JIRA project mapping and issue key linking (including the associated "hovering" content) will be retrieved using the user specified on the JIRA Server configuration page in the FishEye administration section.

We are working towards supporting Trusted Applications for issue key linking and project mapping. If this issue is important to you, please vote for CRUC-1910.
