Jira Cloud

To connect Jira Cloud to Salto:

  1. Obtain an API Token from https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens

  2. Create a Salto environment and connect the Jira instance to it. See here how to create an environment in Salto.

  3. In application credentials, provide:

    1. Your Atlassian Base URL (e.g. https://acme.atlassian.net/)

    2. The user email

    3. The token you created in step 1

Jira Data Center

❗ To use Salto with Jira Data Center, install the Salto Jira Addon in your instance.

To connect the Jira Data Center to Salto:

  1. Install the Salto Configuration Manager for Jira add-on in your relevant Jira DC instances. The add-on can be downloaded from the Atlassian marketplace. The add-on has been Data Center Approved by Atlassian.

  2. If needed, configure your firewall to enable incoming connections from Salto's static IP addresses into your Jira instance.

    1. Salto's IP addresses are available on this page.

    2. Salto performs GET, PUT, POST, and DELETE requests for the following REST API groups:

      1. /rest/salto/1.0/*

      2. /rest/api/2/*

      3. /rest/agile/1.0/board/*

      4. /rest/cb-automation/latest/*

      8. /rest/triggers/1.0/workflow/*

      9. /rest/webhooks/1.0/webhook/*

      10. /rest/workflowDesigner/1.0/*

  3. Create a Salto environment and connect the Jira Data Center instance by choosing "Jira Data Center" in the new application modal. See here how to create an environment in Salto.
