Once you've installed the app on your Jira instance, go to "Settings".

Click on "Add-ons".

Go to "Manage add-ons".

Click on the Standbot app to expand its details.

Click on "Configure" to link your Jira instance to your Slack workspace.

Input the name of your Slack workspace and click on "Verify Team".

Note: You should have Stand-bot already installed in your Slack workspace for this verification to work.

If the verification goes smoothly, you'll be taken to this screen.

If you installed Stand-bot on Slack, he will send you the following message through Direct Message:

Note: If someone else from your workspace installed Stand-Bot on Slack, use the command "connect-jira" through DM with Stand-bot. It will prompt the Jira connection flow.

Click "Yes" to confirm that you want to link Jira with your Slack workspace.

After clicking "Yes", Stand-bot will add a link that reads "Verify your team". Click on it.

You will be taken to this screen in Jira.


Click on "Confirm" to link Jira with your Slack workspace.


Once you do, you'll be able to Match your Jira projects to your #channels in Slack.
