Do you want to search Jira issue by text entered and project (preset)? Is that what you are asking?

Yes, want to get JIRA issue for text entered.

If, entered Summay text value is :  ATM.

 (Confirm forms to return)Jira issue: XYZX

Confiforms to search in the preset project (Summary field) and return JIRA ISSUE KEY.

What if there are multiple matching issues? Should it return the first one matching?

Small example utilizing lookup and set from WS rule and Jira REST API to search the issue by JQL

Thanks Alex , I tried using the storage format, since my organisation haven't enabled Webservice Connection ,so the confi forms rules "could not  find any configured WS connections to be used with Confiforms", hence the Jirakey field name doesn't return any value.

Could you please suggest any other options to return the Jirakeykey field?

To query an external service you need a connection to that service. There is no other option possible
