Overview
Torii integrates with your Jira account and syncs the following attributes:
- List of users and their roles
- Usage
- License type
You can constantly be updated with application information from our Integrations Page >> Integration Capabilities button >> Integration Capabilities table.
Prerequisites
- At least one user must expose their email address ('emailAddress' field). If all user's email addresses are hidden, the integration will fail.
- To get usage, the user 'Who created the token' requires to have access to Jira.
Work Management.
Note: Integration with "Jira Server" (the self-hosted solution) is not supported.
Usage
Torii monitors Jira usage data daily.
- We monitor all events for existing Jira issues listed in the Jira ticket activity log.
Comments - Created/ edited/ deleted comments - History - Monitors issue's activities like attachments, dates, assign to, etc.
- Work log - Created/ edited/ deleted work logs
If a Jira user completed at least one of the following actions on a given day:
- Created/ edited/ deleted comments
- Attached, assigned, changed an item
- Worked on the work log
The user will be considered an "Active user."
Once connected, Torii will show usage from the last 30 days
Note
: Users who have set their email address to be hidden can not be synced from Jira.
License type
A Jira site usually contains multiple products:
- Jira Core, Jira Software, Jira Service Desk and more.
- Each user's product access will be shown as a license for the user.
- Note that "Jira Core" is included in other products.

Q&A
Q: Will the 'Delete JIRA Cloud User' action in a workflow always delete a JIRA user?
A: No. If the user has opened a JIRA ticket in the past (and thus is a 'Reporter' in JIRA), Torii cannot delete them per JIRA's API limitations.

Q: I am trying to connect the Jira integration, but getting an 'Invalid credentials' error. What should I do?
A: Please try the following steps:
- Make sure the email who connected the integration is a global administrator
