Ticket statuses are synchronized with Jira if the integration is configured. Status changes in Jira are reflected in Borderbolt automatically.

Jira Integration

When Jira Service Management integration is enabled, tickets created in Borderbolt are automatically pushed to Jira. This provides:

  • Automatic ticket creation in your Jira project
  • Status synchronization — Jira status changes are reflected in Borderbolt
  • External link — Each ticket shows a link to the corresponding Jira issue
  • Customer request support — If configured, tickets are created as JSM customer requests

The ticket description in Jira includes the original description plus metadata about the linked declaration (MRN, reference, type, status, customer).
