Overview

What does the integration offer?

Twilio sends webhooks when its app monitor triggers are fired. Jira Service Management offers a Twilio integration that turns triggered notifications into meaningful and robust Jira Service Management alerts. Forward these webhooks to Jira Service Management to notify users via iPhone and Android push notifications, email, SMS, and phone calls, to track the alert life cycle, escalate alerts, etc.

Set up the integration

Twilio is an API-based integration. Setting it up involves the following steps:

Add a Twilio integration in Jira Service Management
Configure the integration in Twilio

Add Twilio integration

If you're using the Free or Standard plan in Jira Service Management, you can only add this integration from your team’s operations page. To access the feature through Settings (gear icon) > Products (under JIRA SETTINGS) > OPERATIONS, you need to be on Premium or Enterprise plan.

Adding an integration from your team’s operations page makes your team the owner of the integration. This means Jira Service Management only assigns the alerts received through this integration to your team.

To add a Twilio integration in Jira Service Management:

Go to your team’s operations page.
On the left navigation panel, select Integrations and then Add integration.
Run a search and select “Twilio”.
On the next screen, enter a name for the integration.
Optional: Select a team in Assignee team if you want a specific team to receive alerts from the integration.
Select Continue.
The integration is saved at this point.
Expand the Steps to configure the integration section and copy the integration URL, which includes the Jira Service Management endpoint and the API key.
You will use this URL while configuring the integration in Twilio later.
Select Turn on integration.
The rules you create for the integration will work only if you turn on the integration.

Configure the integration in Twilio

In Twilio, enter “Create New Trigger” into the search bar.
Select Create New Trigger.
Select Trigger a Webhook.
Paste the URL you copied while adding the integration in Jira Service Management into URL.
Select Save.

You can configure alert properties on the Twilio integration page and manage Twilio API notifications in Jira Service Management and use its full alerting functionality.
