Jira Integration - DailyBot Developers

Connect Jira Software to DailyBot for activity tracking and natural language task management directly from chat.

Jira Integration

Connect Jira Software to DailyBot to track issue activity and manage tasks using natural language commands. The integration supports issue creation, updates, deletions, comments, sprint closures, and version releases — all surfaced in your check-in reports.

Setup

Step 1: Connect Jira

  1. Go to DailyBot Settings → API & Integrations → Jira
  2. Click Connect Jira in the top-right corner
  3. Complete the OAuth authentication by clicking Accept
  4. Select your Jira workspace and the boards you want to connect

Team Setup

Organization admins can monitor which team members have completed the OAuth connection and send reminders to those who haven't. All team members should complete OAuth so their activity is tracked under their own name.

Natural Language Commands

DailyBot understands natural language commands for managing Jira tasks directly from your chat platform. Use ticket numbers (e.g., TQ-4) for best results.

Update Status

Change task statuses using natural language:

  • Change the status of TQ-3 to To Do
  • Set TQ-3 to In Progress
  • Mark TQ-5 as Done

Supported statuses: To-do, In progress, and Done.

Update Due Date

Modify task deadlines with flexible date expressions:

  • Push the deadline of TQ-4 to the end of the month
  • Move the due date of TQ-3 to tomorrow
  • Set TQ-7 due date to March 15

Tickets Summary

Request task information:

  • How's the status for ticket TQ-8?
  • What are my tasks?
  • Show me open tickets in Project Alpha

Add Comments

Post comments to tickets:

  • Add a comment to TQ-2 saying I've finished the integration
  • Comment on TQ-6: waiting for design review

Best Practices

Use ticket numbers (e.g., TQ-4) rather than task names for optimal recognition. Users can only comment on and update tasks assigned to them.

Activity Tracking in Reports

  1. Open the check-in settings for the check-in you want to enhance
  2. Go to Sharing → Advanced Options
  3. Enable Activity tracking

Activity logged within 24 hours before a check-in response through the end of that day appears as an automatically added column in reports.
