Configure

Use Jira to leverage issue management, issue syncing, and receive notifications about changes to issue status.

Issue Management

Issue tracking allows you to create Jira issues from within Sentry, and link Sentry issues to existing Jira Issues.

To configure Issue management, once you’ve navigated to a specific Sentry issue, you’ll find the Linked Issues section on the right hand panel.

Here, you’ll be able to create or link Jira issues.

Issue Sync

Sync comments, assignees, and status updates for issues in Sentry to Jira, to minimize duplication. When you delegate an issue to an assignee or update a status on Jira, the updates will also populate in Sentry. When you resolve an issue in Sentry, the issue status will automatically update in Jira.

To configure Issue sync, navigate to Organization Settings > Integrations, and click "Configure" next to your Jira Server instance. On the following page, you’ll see options of what information you’d like synced between Sentry and Jira.

Issue Notifications

Alert notifications in Sentry can be routed to many supported integrations, but by default are aimed at email. You will need to configure a project’s Alert Rules to properly route notifications to a specific integration.

Troubleshooting

If you're having trouble setting up Sentry with your on-premise integration, verify the following:

• The provided installation URL is a fully qualified domain name (FQDN), which is resolvable on the internet.
• The IP addresses Sentry uses to make outbound requests are allowed.
• Sentry's access to your installation URL is not path restricted.
