Would Auto-Connect SharePoint Folders in Jira make a difference for your teams?

[Klaida_Communardo Products]

SharePoint Connector for Jira Cloud by Communardo Products links SharePoint folders to Jira projects, so teams can access the right documents directly within their Jira issues.

Whenever a new task, project, or service request is created, the matching SharePoint folder had to be searched for and attached manually.

But what if Jira could automatically recognize which folder belongs to each type of work item in the project?

Meet Auto-Connect in SharePoint Connector for Jira Cloud

With the latest update, you can set up it once - and every new Jira issue of that type will automatically connect to the right SharePoint folder.

No more repetitive clicks. No more misplaced files. Just documents exactly where your team expects them.

How it Works

1. Go to Project Settings and pick the SharePoint folder.
2. Enable Auto-Connect with the toggle.
3. Select the Jira work item type.
4. Save your settings - and you’re done.

From now on, whenever someone creates a new Jira issue in the project, the SharePoint folder is already there in the Files panel.
