Jira

With Gremlin's Jira integration, you can create and track Jira issues directly from Services, Scenario Runs, and GameDay Summaries in Gremlin. Jira integration must be enabled at the individual user account level.

What will Gremlin be able to do?

  • Create issues and update their attributes such as attachments, comments, and so on.
