Jira automation

 Jira automation

Jira provides an automation feature that allows teams to automate repetitive tasks and processes. Jira automation is built using Jira's built-in rule engine and provides a visual interface for creating and managing automation rules. Developers can also use Jira's REST API to automate tasks programmatically.

Here's an example of how to create an automation rule in Jira to assign an issue to a specific user when it's created:

In Jira, go to the "Automation" page and click "Create rule."

Choose "Create rule" as the trigger for the rule.

Add a "Branch" condition and configure it to check if the issue is of a specific issue type.

Add an "Action" to assign the issue to a specific user.

Jira software development kit (SDK): Jira provides an SDK that allows developers to build plugins and integrations using a number of

different programming languages, including Java, Python, and JavaScript. The SDK provides tools and templates that help developers to get started quickly and provides a streamlined development process.

Here's an example of how to use Jira SDK to create a new Jira plugin using Java:

Install the Jira SDK by following the instructions provided in the official documentation.

Use the SDK to create a new Jira plugin project using the following command:

atlas-create-jira-plugin

Open the project in your favorite Java IDE and start adding your custom functionality.

Build the plugin using the following command:

atlas-package

Deploy the plugin to your Jira instance using the following command:

atlas-install-plugin

Once the plugin is deployed, you can enable it in Jira and start using it.

In summary, Jira provides a number of new topics that involve coding, including its REST API, plugin system, automation features, and software development kit. These features allow developers to customize and extend Jira to meet the needs of their development teams, automate repetitive tasks, and integrate with other tools and systems.
