Jira Integration

Jira Cloud API: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/intro/#version

What Can the API do?

The API does a lot, well, everything really. But what are we likely to be interested in?

• Issues

  • The API does all CRUD operations, as well as allowing the upload of comments, attachments etc

Authentication

There are several ways to authenticate with the API

• API Token

• Basic Auth

• JWT

• OAuth

We probably want to use the OAuth flow to authenticate users .

Microsoft has some good diagrams of how it works - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/v2-app-types#mobile-and-native-apps
