Jira

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"

• In the top banner, bavigate to "Security"

• Under "API tokens," click "Create and manage API tokens"

• Click "Create API token"

• Enter a name to identify the API key, such as Dropzone.ai, then click "Create"

• Store the API token shown in a secure location for use later in the Dropzone UI where it is called "API Token"

Enable the Dropzone Data Source Integration
