Connecting Jira with Microsoft Flow

Matthias Caesar October 11, 2019

Neither of the entries I make in the Connector Setting screen at Microsoft Flow seems to work.

I always get the same message that Testing the connection was not suggessful.

I use https://company.atlassian.net/

My users name and the API Token.

Any help is appreciated

Hi @Matthias Caesar ,

Have you checked out this documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/jira/ ?

Matthias Caesar October 11, 2019

Topp, Thank you so much. I did use the wrong token. NOt a presonal one, but one for the site. The post you refered me to had the correct link. Now it works.

Great stuff. Super active community.

@Matthias Caesar 

Did you got the API token from Jira hosted in Cloud? or Jira hosted on server? I am looking the connection for Jira Server to MS flow connection. Our jira hosted on server not on Cloud.

Thanks,

Om

In our case it was/is Jira cloud. But the process should be the same, I'd guess. Check out the documentation at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/jira/  which @leandropbarreto kindly pointed me to. That was very helpful.

It looks like any Jira server < 8.14 cannot be connected since the API token generation for Jira server is supported only in later versions: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-67869

Hello for connecting Power Automate to JIRA CLOUD, you need a token.
for JIRA ON PREMISE, you can connect simply with Authentication ==> Basic.


for Cloud.

  1. create a token here :
    1. link https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens
  2. click to "Create an API token" a text a label like "PowerAutomate"
  3. copy the generate key and save it, because you cannot see it anymore.
  4. on automate connector, text as username your atlassian email
    1. and as password, the generated key on step3

he should be work.

Regards.
