How do I access Jira projects from JPD?

[Monica Arun Kumar]

Hi,

I have registered for the free version of JPD. I have created a project in JPD and want to be able to create/ add a delivery ticket for my ideas in the Jira software. I am unable to see any of the Jira projects pop up in the search box of JPD. My organisation uses Jira software and have projects setup in Jira. I am researching on JPD to see if we can use JPD to integrate with Jira software. Just to get a feel how JPD integrates with Jira I want to be able to add my ideas from JPD to an already existing epic in Jira software.

Hi @Neta Ilany it's not in our immediate plans to make improvements to Automation capabilities, though we have noted your issue for us to address when we work on this area in the future. I suspect the limitation here is that dates in Jira Product Discovery are actually a text field under the hood, we did this so we can support date ranges (eg. Delivery in Q1 instead of Jan 1 2023).

In case you haven't seen it already, here's a post with our supported Automations: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Product-Discovery-articles/Product-demo-Automation-for-Delivery/ba-p/2057152

Hi @Rohan Swami
Any news on making dates in JPD actual dates so we can query them?

Thanks

@Christian Prats this isn't in our short term plans at the moment

Hi,

Is there any update on this matter?

@Neta Ilany @Rohan Swami @Christian Prats  Figured out workaround:

First you want to find the name of your custom field you use in product discovery for date you want to set. You can follow this tutorial: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/find-the-smart-value-for-a-field/ 

Once you have your custom field, you can set its value inside "More options" on create or edit issue action.





The format is following:

If you want the date to be from 2024-02-04 to 2024-02-05:

{
"fields": {
"customfield_10185": "{\"start\":\"2024-02-04\",\"end\":\"2024-02-05\"}"
}
}
}

If you want the date to be set to 2024-02-04:

{
"fields": {
"customfield_10185": "{\"start\":\"2024-02-04\",\"end\":\"2024-02-04\"}"
}
}
}

If you want to use smart values (be sure to have it formatted right):

{
"fields": {
"customfield_10185": "{\"start\":\"{{triggerIssue.duedate}}\",\"end\":\"{{triggerIssue.duedate}}\"}"
}
}
}
