Jira

Integrate your application with the Jira API

🚀 Quickstart

Connect to Jira with Nango and see data flow in 2 minutes.

1. Create the integration

   In Nango (free signup), go to Integrations -> Configure New Integration -> Jira.

2. Authorize Jira

   Go to Connections -> Add Test Connection -> Authorize, then log in to Jira. Later, you’ll let your users do the same directly from your app.

3. Call the Jira API

   Let’s make your first request to the Jira API (fetch a list of issues). Replace the placeholders below with your secret key, integration ID, and connection ID:

   cURL

   curl "https://api.nango.dev/proxy/ex/jira/{connectionConfig.cloudId}/rest/api/3/search?maxResults=10" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-SECRET-KEY>" \
     -H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
     -H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>"
   

   Or fetch credentials with the Node SDK or API.

   The {connectionConfig.cloudId} in the URL represents the cloudId. You can get this value from your connection configuration after creating the connection. The cloudId is automatically set by Nango.

   ✅ You’re connected! Check the Logs tab in Nango to inspect requests.

4. Implement Nango in your app
