Pushpkant Garg June 25, 2016

I want to connect JIRA and Prontoforms. So that I can get live data from field workers onto JIRA system.

Can anyone please help me in setting up the connectivity?

Hi,

If you are looking to do something like have a mobile forms submission create a new issue in JIRA, then you may be able to achieve this through a combination of the JIRA REST API and the HTTP data destinations in ProntoForms.

JIRA has a REST API end point that allows for the creation of a new issue:
https://developer.atlassian.com/static/rest/jira/6.1.html#d2e864 

ProntoForms has a few different "web hook" capabilities built-in.   You would probably need to use the template-driven destination in order to dynamically generate the JSON message required in JIRA.

 There is more detail on the templating engine here:
https://support.prontoforms.com/hc/en-us/articles/217496658-Using-Freemarker-FTL-with-ProntoForms 

I hope this helps.

/Glenn

What do you need from this "connectivity"?  ("Get live data from field workers" is a little too short to explain much).  Have you found add-ons or instructions for doing what you're trying to achieve, or are you starting from scratch?
