Jira Data Center

Michael VerkhovykhTasks & WorkflowsNew
Get it for macOS

Browse and update Jira Data Center issues from BB, and let agents change them only after you approve. Open a list or status board, edit fields in place, and drag a card through the workflow. Agents can search, create, edit, transition, comment on, assign, and delete issues, with each write kind asking first unless you set it to always allow. Link a BB project to its Jira projects so chats stay scoped, spawn a thread from an issue, or drive the same actions with bb jira-dc. Requires a reachable Jira Data Center (or Server) base URL and a Personal Access Token; Jira Cloud is not supported.

Overview

What you get

  • A Jira DC page with saved views for issues assigned to you, reported by you, and recently updated. Narrow by project, assignee (including unassigned), or text, or write JQL directly.
  • A List grouped by In progress, To do, and Done, or a Board with one column per workflow status. Drag a card to another column to move the issue; a move the workflow does not allow snaps back with the reason.
  • An issue view where you edit the title, description, status, assignee, priority, labels, and comments in place. Deleting asks for confirmation.
  • The same browser as a thread side panel, and @ mentions that attach an issue's current state to a message.
  • bb jira-dc CLI for status, links, search, get, comment, transition, and spawn.

Agents

Agents get jira_dc_* tools to search, read, create, edit, transition, comment on, assign, and delete issues. Descriptions and comments are written in Markdown and converted to Jira wiki markup.

Every kind of change asks first by default. Create, edit, status, comment, assignee, and delete each have their own setting, Ask every time or Always allow, and the approval card in the thread can switch one to Always allow. A declined or timed-out approval sends nothing to Jira. Your own edits on the Jira page never ask.

Project links

Link a BB project to one or more Jira projects. In that project's chats, agent searches, @ mentions, and the side panel stay within the linked projects, and a separate tool still searches all of Jira when you ask about something else.

Send to agent starts a chat in the BB project linked to the issue's Jira project. When none is linked, pick a project and link it in the same step.

Requirements

Jira Data Center (or Server with REST API v2). Enter your base URL (for example https://jira.company.com) and a Personal Access Token from Profile → Personal Access Tokens. The token is stored as a secret on the BB server and used only for Jira's REST API. The plugin acts with that account's Jira permissions.

Jira Cloud is not the target — use the Community Jira plugin for Cloud.
