How to get Jira Connect App Password for Octopus Deploy plugin

Christine Houlding

December 19, 2024

I've installed Octopus Deploy app for Jira Cloud and trying to configure it. 
In the Octopus config settings it asks for the Jira Connect App Password.  The instructions do not tell me how to generate this.

Despite much Googling I can't seem to find what to enter here - can anyone help advise?

 

Here are the instructions from https://octopus.com/docs/releases/issue-tracking/jira#connecting-jira-cloud-and-octopus 

 

Configure the Jira extension in Octopus Deploy.

In the Octopus Web Portal, navigate to Configuration ➜ Settings ➜ Jira Integration and copy the following values from the Jira App configuration page:

  • Jira Base URL. This tells Octopus where your Jira instance is located and enables Octopus to render the links back to Jira issues. i.e., https://your-jira-instance.atlassian.net.
  • Jira Connect App Password.

I've checked this, the password is visible only once after install

reinstall app.png

"The Jira Connect App password cannot be retrieved once you leave this screen.
Make sure you save this key in a safe place like a password management tool."

Re-install the app to get the new password!

Please mark this as resolved ^^
