new version

We have a new version of Outlook Email for Jira!
This is the documentation for the old add-in. If you are looking for info about the new one, please click click here.


A search folders are an Outlook standard feature. It is a folder that automatically filters your mails based on any criterias.

That way you can create a folder, that always shows items you already uploaded to Jira (= have the Jira icon next to it)

Step-by-step guide


  1. Create a new search folder:
  2. Choose custom Search folder and click on Choose to select the criteria.
    Then enter a name for the folder.
  3. Click on Criteria to define the search filters. Switch to the Advanced tab, and add a new field: All Mail fields → Message Class.
    Enter the filter value: contains Jira and choose Add to List
  4. Save the folder and you are done


The folder now always shows all items you have uploaded to Jira so far
