Hot to start/initiate a workflow issue in JiraCore from other datasource

Question

Hello I am evaluating JiraCore for business workflow my question is we have a order system sql server database.

Our desire is when we get a order of a specific type n our sql server we want it to automaticlly start a issue worklow in JiraCore how can this be done?

We would configure workflow and I have done some in the demo I have but I want a request to start a worklow to come in automatically based on a connection to our order system db.

Thank you

Thanks for answer but do you have links to specifics on how to do this?

I am guessing I have to do this through REST but need some guidance or examples.

You would need to write some code in JIRA to poll your database for changes regularly, write a JIRA workflow trigger that could do the same, or get some database trigger to run something that can issue a "transition issue X" over JIRA's REST interface.
