The Deductive Jira app links your Jira site to your Deductive organization so your team can build automations that use Jira. Once the site is linked, automations can act on your Jira data without anyone re-authenticating. Linking is a one-time, admin-level task. You need to be a Jira admin to install the app and enter the linking code.
This is separate from the Jira data source integration, which connects Jira as read-only data via an API token. Install the Jira app here when you want to use Jira in automations; use the data source integration when you only want Deductive to reason over Jira data.

Before you start

  • You must be a Jira admin on the site you want to link.
  • Have your Deductive site open. The setup dialog shows the exact site URL and generates the linking code you’ll paste into Jira.

Step 1: Open Jira setup in Deductive

In Deductive, open Integrations and select Jira. The Jira Setup dialog walks you through linking in three steps.

The Jira Setup dialog in Deductive. Link your Jira site to this organization in three steps.

Step 2: Install the Deductive app on your Jira site

In the setup dialog, click Install the Deductive app on your Jira site. Follow the prompts in Jira to install the app. You’ll need Jira admin permissions to complete the install.

Step 3: Generate a linking code

Back in the Deductive setup dialog, click Generate linking code and copy the code. Keep the dialog open. You’ll also need the site URL shown in step 3 of the dialog.

Step 4: Enter the code in Jira

  1. In Jira, go to Apps → Deductive.
  2. Enter the site URL shown in the Deductive setup dialog.
  3. Paste the linking code you copied.
  4. Confirm.
Once Jira accepts the code, your site is linked to your Deductive organization.

What just happened

Your Jira site is now linked to your Deductive organization. Automations that use Jira can run against this site without per-user authentication. Building automations is user-track work.
