Automating Jira Tasks – Any Recommended Scripting Tools?

[alexa447]

Hey everyone,

I've been looking into ways to automate repetitive Jira tasks, and I came across some tools that use scripts with executors to streamline workflows. I was reading about different solutions, and a website caught my attention. It seems like a good fit for certain automation cases, but I’d love to hear from the community.

Has anyone here used scripts to improve task management or reporting in Jira? Are there specific tools or best practices you’d recommend to make automation smoother? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Hello @alexa447 ,

1. I always prefer Automation for Jira native automation tool, recently it has got lots of enhancements and capabilities and I believe if it is regarding automating repetitive task it should be a good fit.
   
   Use cases: https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/automation-template-library
   
   Only thing that you should check is on the execution limit, which varies from different license editions like standard, premium or enterprise
   
   
2. ScriptRunner: Another would be scriptrunner, has even more capabilities
