Jira Integration

Connect a TMS ONE project to a Jira project to link test cases and defects to Jira tickets. Once connected, Jira tickets appear as a selectable field when creating test cases and defects.

Connecting Jira to a project

Jira is connected at the project level from the Projects list.

Step 1 — Open the Jira integration

  1. Go to Projects from the top-level navigation
  2. In the Actions column, click the link icon for the project you want to connect
The link icon turns green when Jira is already connected to a project.

Step 2 — Enter your Jira credentials

A modal opens. Fill in your Jira connection details:
Jira Email
text
required
The email address associated with your Jira account.
Jira API Token
text
required
Your personal Jira API token. To generate one:
  1. Log in to your Atlassian account at id.atlassian.com
  2. Go to Security → API tokens
  3. Click Create API token, give it a label, and copy the token
Jira Base URL
text
required
The root URL of your Jira instance.
Example: https://your-domain.atlassian.net
Click Connect. TMS ONE validates your credentials and retrieves the list of Jira projects available to your account.

Step 3 — Select a Jira project

A second step appears showing a dropdown of all Jira projects in your workspace. Select the Jira project you want to link to this TMS ONE project and click Save.

After connecting

Once connected:
  • When creating or editing a test case, a Jira Tickets multi-select field appears — search and link relevant Jira tickets
  • When creating a defect, you can similarly link Jira tickets to track bugs across both tools
  • When generating automation scripts in Test Builder, a Jira Tickets field is available in the script creation form

Disconnecting Jira

To remove the Jira connection from a project, open the link icon modal again and click Disconnect. This removes the integration but does not delete any data in Jira or TMS ONE.
