At yasoon, our focus is on offering apps that deeply integrate Jira and Microsoft 365. Therefore, this topic is part of our everyday life and that's why we felt called to create this article for non-users of yasoon’s app.

  1. For simple requirements, the official Microsoft Teams integration by Atlassian is enough for you. In your project settings you'll be able to select "Microsoft Teams integration" and set up a notification for a specific Microsoft Teams channel.

  1. For more advanced Jira automation rules, you can work with Microsoft 365 for Jira - Outlook Email, Teams, Calendar | Atlassian Marketplace. In the video we’re showing you how to set up basic and advanced automations with Microsoft and Jira.

With minor adjustments, you'll be able to work with your automation rules just as they are.
