Hi @developer ,

First can you define what you mean by Integrate? 

On a very basic understanding of I would like to be able to create projects, issues from my application in JIRA, this would involve a lot of development on your side to begin with but here is what I think you can do.

I am Assuming you are referring to JIRA Cloud based on your tag.

Your Application to JIRA:

1. Have your application find a way to collect the information and populate them into parameters you can send to JIRA via Rest API. Find the REST API doc from atlassian here.
2. Find a way to get a confirmation from JIRA to show that your operation worked as expected.

JIRA to your Application:

1. JIRA can send information to your application via Webhooks following specific events. Hence you would need to find a way to collect and handle the Webhook content sent by JIRA and most importantly how it would make a reasonable information to the person looking at your website.
2. Alternatively as you can see in the link of the Rest API I shared above, you can also make get calls for specific information which would be returned to you in JSON format which you could find a way to handle.

If I misunderstood your request, do provide some more information on what exactly you plan on achieving.

If anyone else has an idea, please do share.

Hi @Ismael Jimoh I am creating a product management tool and want to create a project and issue from my website onto a jira account.

for accessing rest API, I need basic auth token

But I am not able to get an auth token in any manner.

In that case, I need your help

[Ismael Jimoh]

For accessing Jira you can either pass user’s username and password with your call (nor recommended due to security reasons) or you authenticate via an OAuth token explained here: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/jira-rest-api-oauth-authentication/

[Ismael Jimoh]

A clearer explanation for getting the token in cloud can be found here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/api-tokens-938839638.html

I do recommend reading what the method is about to ensure itmeets your requirements.
