This add-on enables the Jira integration for the Agile Retrospectives for Confluence add-on, so teams can run retrospectives and turn their action items to Jira issues.

To make use of this integration, please install Agile Retrospectives for Confluence first.

1. Turning action items into Jira issues

  • Install this connector in your Jira instance.
  • Visit your past retrospectives or create a new retrospective session using the Agile Retrospectives for Confluence add-on.
  • Once your retrospective is finished, in the Action Items Summary tab, you should see "Create Jira issue" below each action item.

  • Select the action item you want to send to Jira and click on "Create Jira issue". You will see the following modal:

• Define the name for your Jira issue in the Summary field. Your action item will be displayed there by default, but you can modify it.

• Select the Jira Project in which you wish to create the issue. The issue will be added to that Project's backlog.

  • Select the desired Issue Type.

  • Once you're done, click on "Create".

• Success! You've just created a Jira issue from your action item. You'll now be able to see the Issue Key below that particular action item.

• If you click on the Issue Key, you'll be taken to that Issue in Jira so you can add a description to it and assign it.
