Jira Cloud trigger

The Jira Cloud trigger is a Connector Event trigger that lets you invoke an integration based on the Jira Cloud events that you've subscribed to in your Jira Cloud connection.

Before you begin

If you plan to create or configure a new connection for the Jira Cloud trigger, make sure that you have the following IAM role on the project:

Connector Admin (roles/connectors.admin)

For information about granting roles, see Manage access.

Grant the following IAM roles to the service account that you want to use for the Jira Cloud trigger:

Application Integration Invoker (roles/integrations.integrationInvoker)

For information about granting roles to a service account, see Manage access to service accounts.

Add the Jira Cloud trigger

To add a Jira Cloud trigger to your integration, perform the following steps:

In the Google Cloud console, go to the Application Integration page.
Go to Application Integration
In the navigation menu, click Integrations
The Integrations List page appears listing all the integrations available in the Google Cloud project.
Select an existing integration or click Create integration to create a new one.
If you are creating a new integration:
1. Enter a name and description in the Create Integration pane.
2. Select a region for the integration.
  Note: The Regions dropdown only lists the regions provisioned in your Google Cloud project. To provision a new region, Click Enable Region. See Enable new region for more information.
3. Select a service account for the integration. You can change or update the service account details of an integration any time from the Integration summary pane in the integration toolbar.
  Note: The option to select a service account is displayed only if you have enabled integration governance for the selected region.
4. Click Create.
This opens the integration in the integration editor.
In the integration editor navigation bar, click Triggers to view the list of available triggers.
Click and place the Jira Cloud trigger element in the integration editor.

To configure the Jira Cloud trigger, you can either use an existing Jira Cloud connection available in Integration Connectors, or create a new Jira Cloud connection using the inline connection creation option.

Configure Jira Cloud trigger using an existing connection

You can configure the Jira Cloud trigger using an existing Jira Cloud connection in Integration Connectors. Note that the Jira Cloud trigger is an Connector Event trigger, therefore you can only use a Jira Cloud connection with event subscription enabled to configure the trigger.

For information about how to configure a Jira Cloud trigger using a new Jira Cloud connection, See Configure Jira Cloud trigger using a new connection

To configure a Jira Cloud trigger using an existing Jira Cloud connection, perform the following steps:

Click the Jira Cloud trigger element in the integration editor to open the trigger configuration pane.

Trigger output

The Jira Cloud trigger takes a couple of minutes to complete the event subscription configuration. You can view the status of your event subscription in the trigger configuration pane under Event Subscription details.

The Jira Cloud trigger indicates the status of an event subscription using the following states:

Creating: Indicates that the trigger is subscribing to the event subscription.
Active: Indicates that the trigger is successfully subscribed to an event subscription.
Error: Indicates that the there is an issue with the configured event subscription.

In addition to the event subscription status, the Event Subscription details section also displays other details such as connection region, connection name, event subscription name, and more.

The following image shows a sample layout of the Jira Cloud trigger configuration pane:

Trigger output variable

For each event, the Jira Cloud trigger generates a ConnectorEventPayload output variable which you can use in your downstream tasks. The output variable is in JSON format containing the output Jira Cloud payload schema.
