Project Management

Create and update issues in your workflows.

Overview

The Softr Jira integration links your no-code apps directly to your Jira Cloud site. Whenever something happens in Softr — a customer submits a bug report, a record is flagged, a new request comes in — you can automatically create a Jira issue in the right project, with the right type, assignee, priority, and details filled in from your workflow.

Whether you're building a client portal, an internal operations tool, or a support dashboard, the Jira integration closes the gap between what happens in your Softr app and the work your team tracks in Jira.

Available actions

  • Create issueOpen a new issue in a Jira project with a summary, description, issue type, assignee, priority, labels, and due date — all set dynamically from your Softr workflow. Project, issue type, assignee, and priority are chosen from live dropdowns pulled straight from your connected Jira site.
  • Get issueRetrieve the full details of a specific issue by its key — summary, status, assignee, priority, and timestamps — so you can use live Jira data in later workflow steps.
  • Update issueChange an existing issue's summary, description, assignee, priority, labels, or due date to keep Jira in sync with what's happening in your Softr app.

Example use cases

Usecase
Description

  • Internal request deskLet employees file IT or ops requests through a Softr form that creates a Jira issue in the right project.

Key benefits

  • No-code simplicity: Configure every Jira action visually in Softr — no code required beyond the one-time API token setup.
  • Instant issue creation: Turn any Softr form submission or record event into a Jira issue the moment it happens.
  • Always-current options: Projects, issue types, assignees, and priorities load directly from your Jira account, so you never hardcode IDs.
  • Right work, right place: Route each issue to the correct project and assignee automatically, based on your Softr data.
  • Ops-ready portals: Build intake forms and internal tools in Softr that feed work straight into Jira, where your team already plans and ships.
