Dropzone's integration is only with the Jira Cloud, however support for on-prem Jira Datacenter is on the roadmap.
The Dropzone platform supports Jira, a project management and issue tracking tool from Atlassian.
Create an API Key
Jira requires an API key to enable. The API key is associated with an account, so you may wish to create a dedicated service user rather than using your own.
To obtain an API Key, do the following:
Log into your Jira account e.g. https://mycompany.atlassian.net as the API user for Dropzone AI
Click on your user icon and click "Manage Account"
Go to "Manage Account"
In the top banner, bavigate to "Security"
Navigate to "Security"
Under "API tokens," click "Create and manage API tokens"
Click "Create and manage API tokens"
Click "Create API token"
Create API token
Enter a name to identify the API key, such as Dropzone.ai, then click "Create"
Create API token
Store the API token shown in a secure location for use later in the Dropzone UI where it is called "API Token"
Copy API token
Enable Jira
To enable the Alert Source integration, you will need the following information:
Dropzone Field
Source
Server
The same as your company server url in Jira, eg mycompany.atlassian.net
Username
The username of the account that created the API
API Token
The API token value you generated earlier
To enable the Alert Source integration, do the following:
Navigate to your Dropzone AI tenant home page e.g. https://mycompany.dropzone.app
