Azure DevOps move commit or other to different Jira Work Item

[Rune Rasmussen]

Hello

When using the Azure DevOps for Jira (Official) app to connect code repositories in Azure DevOps to Jira Work Items, is it possible to "move", or relate, a commit, branch, deployment, or other, to a different work item after the fact?

Or in other words:

If I do a commit and use the wrong Key in the commit message, can I somehow change that and "move" or relate my commit to the correct work item?

The Jira integration with Azure DevOps via the **Azure DevOps for Jira (Official)** app works by parsing issue keys directly from commit messages, branch names, and PR titles, then associating those development items to the corresponding Jira issue. That linkage is not stored in Jira itself—it’s derived dynamically from the metadata in Azure DevOps—so there is no way within Jira to “move” a commit to a different issue without changing the original reference in Azure DevOps. To correct a wrong key, you need to amend the commit message or rename the branch/PR in Azure DevOps to include the correct Jira issue key, then push the updated reference so the integration can re-index it.
