I have the Slack integration. There's a switch on the Slack Integration that says "Display Slack panel on issues in this project". I don't know how to get that to display on an issue screen.
Hey, @Michael Arndt!
You can make it work like this:
1. Make sure you have connected the Jira project to a Slack channel
Type /jira manage in Slack to check if there are connections. You can a response like this:
If your project is not there, type /jira connect and follow the instructions to connect it.
2. Add a Slack message to Jira
In your Slack channel, chose the Add to issue action from the "three-dots menu" in a message.
In the next screen, select an issue and confirm.
After confirmation, the Jira bot will reply to the original message confirming the addition.
3. Open the issue in Jira and open the Slack sidebar panel
In the Jira issue view, look for the Slack sidebar as displayed below:
Click to open.
⚠️ Here, you will have to authorize into Slack, if not done yet, because it displays only content you have access to.
After authorization, you should be able to see the attached messages.
Hopefully, that helps to clarify how this feature works. 😀
Bonus feature: after a connection from a Slack channel to a Jira project has been made issue keys mentioned in the channel will be automatically added to the sidebar of the issue.
Does this mean that Slack messages will only appear on the Jira issue when a Slack message is pushed to Jira?
Is there a way to initiate a Slack conversion from a Jira Issue screen?
