When working with Productboard and Jira, admins and editors can push a release into Jira. With the push of a button, Productboard can push an entire release into Jira, even syncing your releases to your Fix versions if desired.
In this article:
Setting up release syncing
To set up release syncing between your Productboard account and a Fix version in your Jira integration:
- Click on the workspace name, and select Integrations ():
- Scroll to Jira, and click the name of your Jira integration.
- Scroll down to Release syncing and tick the box Sync feature releases with issue Fix versions and select a release group whose releases will be synced with the Fix version in Jira.
Note: Please ensure the Fix Version checkbox is ticked in the Jira Integration settings on Productboard to push the release through.
Now, when you create a new Fix version in Jira, it will sync with your desired release group. Take a look at it in action below:
Considerations
- Productboard release groups are mapped to Jira fix versions.
- If you have multiple release groups in Productboard, you can decide which one to map to Jira fix version in Productboard's Jira integration settings.
- Clicking on the push button will push the release to Jira, but the “unpushed” state will remain. If the release already exists in Jira, the dialog will notify you.
- All releases within the same release group must have a unique name. Creating a release without a name will create a release called "Unnamed release."
