Automations on Confluence Server? OR How to create issues on Jira Server based on Confluence Events?

[Mateus Oliveira]

Is there someway to automate the creation of issues on Jira Server based on the creation of Events on Confluence (also server)..?

I couldn't find the feature of automation on my Confluence Server, and Jira also doesn't seem to have any automation based on Confluence events...

Hi @Mateus Oliveira 

I guess it‘s not possible natively. What I mean by saying this is there is no action in automation that can do this action.

Depending on which event you‘d like to trigger a jira action I could imagine that this might work with creating a webhook for that special event in confluence.

An automation rule in Jira can (kind of) listen for that webhook/event to be triggered and process a rule - there should be a trigger in Jira automation.

See the documentation of confluence webhooks below:

furthermore a detailed article how to work wirh webhooks in automation:
