Power BI and Jira CLOUD direct integration. (Novice here)

mari_guernsey

Hello

I am a Scrum Master for multiple teams and helping a larger group of teams in my division in getting data exported from Jira (cloud) to Power Bi.

No one at our company had implemented a direct integration. (Azure Dev ops has this functionality)

Is this possible (direct integration), or do we always have to use a third party app?

Is there any documentation showing step by step instructions on how to install, configure, do this connection, upload of data.

- direct integration

- Using an app

I did do a search FIRST in the community for this topic, but I got a bit confused as Jira Server was mentioned all the time, and I wasn't sure if this instance is different from Jira Cloud? (maybe it should be obvious, but it isn't)

Thank you everyone for your time.

Jira Cloud and Jira Server/DC (on-prem) are different products with different functionality, pricing, and architecture. Jira Server/DC is hosted and maintained by the customer while Jira Cloud is hosted and maintained by Atlassian (the easiest way to confirm is looking at your URL if it is <site-name>.atlassian.com then it is cloud).

As for the integration between Jira and Power BI you have two options:

Use a third-party app (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud&product=jira&query=power%20bi)
Export your Jira data .csv format manually and then import it in Power BI

Hi @mari_guernsey

If you are searching for a free option for direct integration you can try to find a solution in this topic:
https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Service-Management/How-to-connect-power-bi-with-Jira-cloud/qaq-p/1757343

But if you are also considering using a third-party app you are welcome to try our Microsoft Power Bi Connector for Jira. You will have a 30-day free trial to decide whether it's the best solution for your needs or not.

Best regards,
Max
