About Advanced Microsoft Teams Connector for Jira
Advanced Microsoft Teams Connector for Jira integrates Jira with Microsoft Teams. This integration was designed to enhance collaboration and productivity by providing seamless communication and information sharing between Jira and Microsoft Teams.
The connector enables to:
track and manage Jira work items from Microsoft Teams;
receive real-time notifications about Jira work items updates;
provide feedback and ask questions without leaving Teams;
search Jira work items and embed cards into Microsoft Teams chats.
You can use Advanced Microsoft Teams Connector for Jira in two ways:
2-way integration provides data flow in both directions. Users can access and interact with Jita work items directly from within the Microsoft Teams platform, and vice versa. Getting benefits from 2-way integration requires simple installation of our companion app Move Work Forward with Jira. More details here.
1-way integration provides data flows only one way from Jira to Microsoft Teams and you cannot interact with Jira work items in Microsoft Teams. To use 1-way integration you have to generate an Workflow URL for a particular Microsoft Teams channel.
