Object catalog

What Stacksync syncs in Jira.

These objects sync between Jira and any connected system, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution. Custom fields are picked up from the live schema where Jira exposes them.

Issues
Core work items (stories, bugs, tasks, epics, sub-tasks); synced two-way with databases and other trackers, keyed by issue key with an updated field for incrementals.
Projects
Containers that group Issues, workflows, and permissions; usually read to segment syncs by team, or written when standing up a new project.
Comments
Discussion threads on Issues; in v3 the body is Atlassian Document Format JSON, so rich text is preserved when syncing to and from other systems.
Worklogs
Time-tracking entries against Issues; read into warehouses for effort and capacity reporting, or written back from timesheet tools.
Sprints
Agile iterations from the Jira Software API; synced to report scope, velocity, and burndown, and to move Issues between sprints.
Versions
Release / fix-version records per Project; synced to align roadmap and release tools on what ships in each version.
Components
Sub-project categories used to route and group Issues; synced so ownership and triage stay consistent across tools.
Users
Account records referenced as reporters, assignees, and watchers; read to resolve accountId to a person when mapping Issue ownership.
API surface

How Stacksync connects to Jira.

The connector runs on Jira's native API. Stacksync manages authentication, rate limits, retries, and schema changes so your team does not maintain integration code.

Connection
REST API v2 and v3 plus the Jira Software (Agile) REST API
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 (3LO) for apps, or Basic auth with an Atlassian account email plus API token
Change detection
Jira webhooks (jira:issue_created / _updated / _deleted plus comment and worklog events) for near-real-time; incremental JQL polling on the issue updated timestamp as a best-effort reconciliation fallback.
Rate limits
Cost-based (points) model; 429 responses return Retry-After and X-RateLimit-* headers. JQL search costs far more than single-issue reads.

What ships with Jira

Connect Jira for flexible, real-time data sync.

Real-time sync, workflow automation, event queues, EDI, and monitoring, for every connection.

Real-time

Two-way sync

Changes in Jira instantly reflect across connected systems. No stale data, no manual imports.

No-code + pro-code

Workflow automation

Trigger automated workflows whenever Jira data changes, update records, fire webhooks, or kick off sequences without brittle API scripts.

At scale

Event queues

Handle millions of events per minute without losing a single Jira record.

Observability

Monitoring

Track your Jira sync health, view errors, and replay failed events in one click.

Trading partners

EDI

Transform legacy EDI complexity into simple database interactions.

Use cases

What teams run on the Jira connector.

Jira is the system of engagement for software engineering and IT teams, owned by engineering leads, PMOs, and Jira site admins. It's where work is tracked: Issues (stories, bugs, tasks, epics, sub-tasks) grouped into Projects, planned across Sprints and Boards, and shipped via Versions and Components. Because roadmaps, incident tickets, and delivery status all live in Jira, other tools such as CRMs, help desks, warehouses, and planning apps need to read status out of it and write work items back in.

  • Engineering managers
  • PMO / project managers
  • DevOps engineers
  • Jira / Atlassian admins
  • Product operations

  1. Two-way sync Issues and their status, assignee, and story points with a Postgres database so teams query and update sprint data in SQL.

  2. Mirror customer bugs from a help desk or Salesforce Cases into Jira as Issues and write resolution and fix Version back to the source.

  3. Load Issues, Worklogs, and status transitions into a warehouse for cycle-time, throughput, and burndown reporting.

  4. Sync Sprints and Boards with a capacity-planning tool so estimates and iteration scope stay aligned.

  5. Consolidate multiple Jira Projects or sites into one database, mapping Projects, Components, and Versions for cross-team reporting.

  6. Two-way sync Jira Issues with an operational Postgres database so analysts and internal apps read sprint status, assignees, and story points in SQL while engineers keep working in Jira, with changes flowing in both directions.

How it works

Set up Jira in minutes, without APIs.

Configure and sync within minutes, no code. Whether you sync 50k or 100M+ records, Stacksync handles the queues, infra, and plumbing. Integrations are non-invasive and need zero setup on your systems.

FAQ

Jira connector FAQ

What can I sync with the Jira connector?

Jira's core objects — Issues, Projects, Comments, Worklogs and custom fields — can sync with any of 302 other systems. Every integration is real-time and bidirectional, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution.

How does Stacksync connect to Jira?

Via REST API v2 and v3 plus the Jira Software (Agile) REST API, authenticated with OAuth 2.0 (3LO) for apps, or Basic auth with an Atlassian account email plus API token. Changes are detected as follows — jira webhooks (jira:issue_created / _updated / _deleted plus comment and worklog events) for near-real-time; incremental JQL polling on the issue updated timestamp as a best-effort reconciliation fallback.. Stacksync manages rate limits, retries, and schema changes automatically.

Is the Jira connector two-way?

Yes. Changes made in Jira propagate to the connected system and vice versa, in milliseconds. One-way flows are also supported when a direction should stay read-only.

How long does a Jira integration take to set up?

Most Jira integrations go live in minutes: authenticate Jira and the other system, pick objects and fields, and enable the sync. No code and no infrastructure to manage.

Is Jira data secure in transit?

Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA compliant. Jira data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means records are not retained after a sync operation.
