Jira
Work with Jira Cloud projects, issues, transitions and comments.
| Nodes | Jira (actions), Jira Trigger (polling) |
| Auth | Basic (email and API token). Not working yet, see below. |
| Availability | Limited release. Not yet in the palette for customer workspaces. |
Known issues: the Jira connector cannot reach Jira Cloud today.
- Jira Cloud API tokens need HTTP Basic authentication (email plus token). Flero's connector does not send Basic authentication, so requests arrive unauthenticated.
- The connector has no field for your site name (
<site>.atlassian.net), so it cannot build the request address.Until these are fixed, call the Jira REST API with the HTTP Request node and a Generic credential.
Connecting
There is no "Connect with Jira" OAuth sign-in. The connector's credential takes a username and password, intended for your Atlassian email and an API token.
