A Jira Service Management integration is a connection between your Jira Service Management account and other apps in your IT environment. When they’re connected, you get alerts from your IT apps, all centralized in Jira Service Management, and you can also access the alert bucket that’s created. You can create custom automation rules for each integration to update and edit data or take custom actions by triggering the connected apps.

Rules in the outgoing section define how Jira Service Management alerts affect your integrated application. You can create two types of rules in the outgoing section:

Send alert updates back to the integrated application

Select this rule type to update the data in the integrated application. This The following is what the flow looks like:

  1. A rule in the incoming section creates an alert in Jira Service Management for some event occurring in the integration application

...

  1. Something about the alert changes in Jira Service Management

...

  1. Jira Service Management sends this update back to the integrated application and updates an associated entity.

In this section, the alert actions and their corresponding actions to be taken in the integrated application are presented in a natural language. Some actions such as “a tag is added to alert” might require user input to work properly. If you leave the input field empty, the rule applies to all values. If you want to limit the input, enter the values manually, then press Enter. This is similar to how you add tags to an alert.

Define actions for alerts manually created or by other integrations

Select this rule typeto define actions for alerts that are either manually created or by other integrations you have set up in Jira Service Management. However, with this option, you’re taking actions in an integrated application against alerts you received from your other integrated tools.

Create a filter to select which alerts you wish to apply this rule to. You can turn on and turn off each of these rules at any time, even when the integration is turned on. Similar to incoming automation rules, Jira Service Management applies the rule from top to bottom and stops once it matches with a rule. So, how you order the rules matter. Unlike rules Very much like in the incoming section, you can order these rules by dragging and dropping them. When you’re done with setting all the rules, turn on the integration from the top of the page.
