2. How can I attached my program into real time Jira cloud database

3.Is there any document please share ?

Hi @chandraprakash

In short you can't connect to the your atlassian.net database, because the potential for causing an issue is too great.

You can get the data you want via REST calls via calls documented in

* https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/intro/

Depending on your needs, a simple email address and token from https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens might do the trick. All the responses will be JSON blobs, so you'll need to parse those.

Hope this helps.

James.
