Git Integration for Jira vs Azure DevOps for Jira

[Matteo Morato]

Hi everyone,

we are currently using Git Integration for Jira plugin (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/4984/git-integration-for-jira-azure-devops-github-gitlab?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) to connect our Jira cloud environment to Azure DevOps repository but i recently noticed an Atlassian App called Azure DevOps for Jira (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1232793/azure-devops-for-jira-official?hosting=cloud&tab=overview).

At the moment we just use the plugin to reference Jira issues to activities performed in Azure DevOps but we would like a more seamless integration where you can either:

- pilot Azure DevOps activities directlly from Jira (i.e. merge/push happens when a Jira transition is triggered)

- limit Azure DevOps activities based on Jira issue status (i.e. developer perform a merge request but this can go on only if the Jira issue is in a certain status).

Any idea about this? Did you try these two plugin and have any opinion about them? Which one is better?

Many thanks in advance!!

Matteo

Hi @Matteo Morato ,

Thanks for asking.

There is an official app and one from Move Work Forward. See the search here.

None of the applications support what you want.

I am from Move Work Forward and we are ready to work with you to enhance our app to support your needs.

Let's have a call where we can discuss your use cases and the current setup (schedule here).

Look forward to working with you.

Regards,

Hi Matteo,

A very warm welcome to the community!

This should certainly be possible and you might actually be able to bring more value to your automated workflows by using a deep integration solution like Exalate. Anything and everything contained within your Azure workItems can be synced and automated status/ priority changes on the remote end can be performed based on specific conditions on the workItem. 

Please let me know if you have any questions. 

Thanks
Majid (Exalate team)
