How to set up a manual export for JIRA

One of the manual export options that Detectify supports is an export of your findings to both Jira Cloud and the on-prem solution.

If you're looking for automatic exports of your findings to Jira Cloud, see this article instead: How to set up your JIRA Cloud integration

Here's how to set up the manual export of your findings to a Jira project:

1. While logged in to your Jira account, head over to the Detectify tool, select your scan profile, then click on Scanning Settings and choose Integrations. Find Jira Software in the list and click "Configure"


2. Enter the email address you use with JIRA, and your API token. Follow the instructions here in order to generate your API token: https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/api-tokens-938839638.html

Please note that a previous login solution using basic auth with username and password has been deprecated.

3. Confirm by clicking Next. If you are using an on-premise solution, click on I'm using an on-prem solution.
Once your credentials are saved, you can adjust the export setup by selecting a project, issue and notification types (note that automatic exports are only available for JIRA cloud integration).

On-prem
If you are using an on-premise solution, you will see a different prompt asking you to enter your Project ID, Issue Type ID, and JIRA URL.


4.1. To find your Project ID, navigate to your project settings in JIRA. You will find your Project ID at the end of the URL.

4.2. To find your Issue Type ID, go to your JIRA account and select JIRA Administration, then click on Issues to see a list of issue types.

Click on Edit to the right of any issue type and the Issue Type ID will be displayed in the URL.

5. Once your credentials are saved, you will see a message confirming that your settings for JIRA export have been created.

6. You're all set! You can now manually export your findings directly from your Findings list:


 Happy scanning!
