Jira is used for issue tracking and project management. Images and captures in Pixtel can be used to create a Jira issue or update an existing issue. Jira accounts are authenticated and saved in the application for future login. With multiple accounts, users can make one account as primary. Project names are filtered before creating or updating an issue. A link to the issue appears at the bottom which can be opened in the web browser. Jira integration significantly improves productivity especially for the users who use it for managing issues with image attachments. In order for Jira integration to work, Jira should be accessible and the Rest API should not be disabled. Integration supports two types of authentication: Basic authentication with API key based authentication that requires user id/ password and OAuth1a. Other custom forms of authentications are not supported.
On clicking the Jira integration button in the share panel, Jira Account Settings form Manager window opens up as shown below:
