I would like to create a release calendar in Sharepoint that pulls from JIRA. When a ticket is created I would like to link it to a release schedule in Sharepoint that can be easily viewed.
Hey Jennifer,
What version and deployment option of SharePoint are you using? SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013 did not have a REST API, so it was very difficult to get them to interact with Jira.
There aren't any Jira <-> SharePoint apps on the Atlassian Marketplace, so while it's not impossible to get SharePoint online / later Server versions to talk, it will require some custom development.
I'd imagine a couple ways of doing this. First, if you can find a Create Event endpoint for SharePoint (such as this one for O365), you could trigger a webhook in Jira that sends the details from the Jira issue to a new calendar event in SharePoint. Secondly, you could have SharePoint check Jira's own API for issue details, and then get what it needs from the issue to display on the calendar.
Despite SharePoint being fairly widespread still, the two systems just don't share common APIs to really do a lot of talking. At Atlassian we primarily use Confluence to fulfill that particular roll and produce our own calendaring solution to help out in that area. Sorry to not have more concrete info about what you're trying to accomplish!
Best,
Daniel | Atlassian Support
