This feature is currently in an exploration stage for Cloud, meaning we’ve released it early, to learn, how customers use it and how to improve it. Therefore, the documentation is still growing. The feature will be released for Data Center in the future, too. If you have any questions or are eager to share feedback, we’d be very happy to hear your thoughts. |

Set-up guide

Actions in a Microsoft 365 tool are fired, if a specific condition is met in Jira. You can create and configure an action via template. To use it in an automation, copy the Jira Webhook webhook URL in the action template.
Alternatively you can also use this Webhook webhook inside your Postfunction postfunction if you don’t want to consume a Jira automation. 🚀 Learn more about how to use webhooks here!
