Links to JIRA issues don't resolve directly from Office 2013

Question

I am logged into JIRA Cloud and I already have the issue I'm linking to open in another tab.

I paste the URL to this (or any other issue) into an Office document

Clicking on the issue presents a page which makes it appear as if I'm not logged in, as below:

After logging in from this page I see the issue, but it makes it tedious when working from a table of issues in Excel when none of the links work in one click. In all other regards I can access JIRA normally in this browser (Chrome).

Yah - seems you need an authentication handshake between the cloud systems. Think abt it - makes sense. If you passed around your file, those users need JIRA login to access.  Integration is technically possibly but not there yet..

Hi Ellen,

It is from an Office 365 Subscription, yes.

Interesting case!

No SSO between your Office 2013 and JIRA Cloud. 
Perhaps you are also running Office 2013 from a cloud Office 365 subscription?

Is this the case?
