Version of Jira required

The Aspire Jira connector was created and tested using a Jira cloud version 6.5-OD-08-001 (build number 65007) with its REST API.

Initial prerequisites

Before installing the Jira Connector, make sure that:

  • Jira repository is up and running.
  • You have a Jira user login with sufficient permissions to crawl documents for indexing.
    • Your account should have Jira side admin permissions and should be in jira-Developers group to fetch permissions and work with group expansion.
  • The server will respond to a Jira Query Language (jql) query of "project is not empty order by id asc" on the url "<protocol>://<server>/rest/api/2/search" and return all issues the user has access to
  • That the returned issues can be accessed using the url "<protocol>://<server>/browse/<issue id>"

Windows or Linux

The Aspire Jira connector can run on either Windows or Linux. It uses the REST API over HTTPS to communicate with Jira .

The API service should be started and running automatically if Jira is up and running. These are required for the Aspire Jira Connector to successfully connect with the Jira repository that you want to index.
