For Jira Cloud, generate a Jira token. This token will act as your password:

Ensure you are logged in as a user with admin rights, click on "Select App" and choose Jira
Select "Create New" to establish a new connection with your Jira instance and add the URL of your Jira instance (omit the trailing "/ ")
Enter the login credentials of the admin user

5. Select the Jira Project

Once the connection is established, choose the Jira project you want to connect to from the dropdown menu

6. Generate Airtable Token

7. Connect to Airtable

If no connection is established yet, create a new one
Use the Airtable token generated as a password. Then select the space and table

8. Type Mapping

Map Jira issue types such as Task, Bug, Epic, and Story to task in Airtable

Please note that at the moment only task in Airtable is supported.

9. Field Mapping

Designate specific fields for synchronization and map them accordingly

10. Finalize Integration

Name your project and click "Create" to finalize the integration setup

11. Filtering:

It is possible to filter the synchronization to have them customized for your needs and requirements.

UI Filtering Option:

Click on the filtering icon near the app icon in your integration. This will apply to that side of the integration.
Select if the filtering applies to All, New, and Synced items.
Note that if the option "New items" is selected, the filtering will apply only to the new items, and the already synced items will continue to sync and update. If the option "Synced items" is selected, only the already synced items will be updated based on that filter.
Choose the options and add the value for the filter. It is possible to filter more than one option for each field.
Select Apply once you created the filters and "Save" the integration.

12. Test the integration

To ensure everything is working correctly, create tasks and go to the reporting section to verify that all syncs are functioning as expected. If you encounter any issues, please contact our support team for assistance.
