What are the recommended integration plugins for Azure DevOps and GitHub?

Question

We are looking to integrate Jira Cloud with our Azure DevOps (and Repos) and GitHub (along with repos and Actions).  There are so many choices it is a little overwhelming, but which plugins are the ones that Atlassian recommends for integration?

Please provide a link to the marketplace plugins, since I'm finding that the plugins are very similarly named, and it is very possible that I install the wrong one.

Thanks!

I don't think it's cumbersome, @Sean Conlon — it's just that my experience here in this community (unlike other consumer-oriented communities I participate in) is that people are reluctant to make recommendations here.

I.e., Posts like this one often go unanswered.

Hopefully, your experience with this thread will be different.

@Sean Conlon -

In addition to what @Dave Rosenlund  _Trundl_ stated, here is the Marketplace link on all add-ons for Cloud as related to DevOps apps integration for Jira Cloud env -

https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud&product=jira&query=DevOps

When choosing the add-ons, you should always look at the one has the "CLOUD FORTIFIED" designation first.  Here is how Atlassian give the product(s) with this designation - https://www.atlassian.com/trust/marketplace?source=app-tile-badge

WIthout knowing more of your exact processing/integration needs, it is a bit more difficult to assist you with more information.  So, please advise.

Thanks for the info Dave, and agreed: my question is a little cumbersome.

The approach you describe is my general modus operandi as well when it comes to plugins with any technology.  Maybe I'll get lucky and someone will give me some details of their hands-on experience with a integration given plugin for one of the technologies (ADO or GHA).

Thanks again!
