Why teams connect Atlassian and Newrelic

Connect the tickets, records, and events in Atlassian to the systems engineering runs in Newrelic, kept current in real time and in both directions.

Atlassian is where customer-facing and operational work happens: the tickets, conversations, contacts, and records a team touches every day. Newrelic is where engineering runs the systems behind that work — the issue trackers, message brokers, directories, and monitors that keep services moving. The same items, people, and events matter to both, and when the only link between them is a manual hand-off or an overnight export, each side acts on a stale copy of what the other already knows.

Stacksync syncs Confluence Spaces, Jira Issues, Jira Projects, Boards and Sprints in Atlassian with Alert Policies & Conditions, NRQL Query Results, Entities, Workloads in Newrelic field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync maps the overlap, resolves conflicts by rules you set, and keeps every copy current, with no middleware to build and no API limits to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 Create Jira issues from records in other systems, such as onboarding tasks generated from a closed-won CRM deal.
  • 02 Keep Jira and a second tracker (for example a customer's Jira instance) aligned during co-delivery projects.
  • 03 Provision Synthetics Monitors from a service catalog and read their results via NRQL for availability and latency reporting in SQL.
  • 04 Provision and update Dashboards and Alert Policies from a config repository or database through NerdGraph so definitions stay versioned and consistent across accounts and environments.

Common sync patterns

Where Newrelic watches operations: live volumes for visibility

Open items, throughput, and error counts from Atlassian replicate into Newrelic, so the operational view reflects what is actually happening in the business.

One shared record across both systems

Where both systems keep records for the same contacts, items, or users, a correction in either updates the other, ending dual maintenance and keeping IDs aligned for every other flow.

Where Newrelic tracks engineering work: requests become issues

A ticket or request raised in Atlassian opens or updates a matching issue in Newrelic, and status, comments, and resolution flow back, so support and engineering work the same item instead of retyping it.

What you can sync between Atlassian and Newrelic

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Atlassian objects Newrelic objects How this pairing syncs
Attachments Files on issues mirrored to paired records where needed. Change Tracking (Deployments) Deployment and change markers recorded through NerdGraph changeTrackingCreateDeployment; written from CI/CD to annotate charts, and read back via NRQL on the Deployment event for release correlation. Attachments is specific to Atlassian and Change Tracking (Deployments) to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Fields Instance-specific fields (customfield IDs) that carry most business-specific data in syncs. Dashboards Dashboard definitions and widgets via NerdGraph dashboardCreate/dashboardUpdate/dashboardDelete mutations and entity queries, with full CRUD; exported for backup and audit or provisioned and updated programmatically from a source of truth. Custom Fields is specific to Atlassian and Dashboards to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workflows and Statuses Status transitions mapped to stages in the paired system. Alert Policies & Conditions Alert policies and NRQL alert conditions managed through NerdGraph alertsPolicy and alertsNrqlCondition mutations with full create, update, and delete; read out for audit or provisioned from a config source so alerting stays consistent across accounts. Workflows and Statuses is specific to Atlassian and Alert Policies & Conditions to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Groups Assignees and reporters matched to identities in other tools. NRQL Query Results Telemetry events, metrics, logs, and spans queried through NerdGraph's nrql field (or the legacy Insights query API) over time windows; read-only and bounded by data retention, commonly streamed into a warehouse for long-term analysis. Users and Groups is specific to Atlassian and NRQL Query Results to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Confluence Pages Documentation content readable and writable through the Confluence REST API. Entities The entity catalog of APM applications, hosts, services, and monitors searched via NerdGraph entitySearch; read for inventory, with tags added or replaced through taggingAddTagsToEntity so ownership and environment metadata stay in sync. Confluence Pages is specific to Atlassian and Entities to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Confluence Spaces Namespaces that scope page syncs and permissions. Workloads Workload groupings of related entities via NerdGraph workloadCreate/workloadUpdate/workloadDelete with full CRUD; read for status rollups or provisioned from a service catalog to keep team-level views current. Confluence Spaces is specific to Atlassian and Workloads to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Atlassian and Newrelic

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Atlassian Newrelic Sub-second propagation

DetectionAtlassian notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on issue and page events, plus JQL polling on the updated timestamp for backfill.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Newrelic through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Newrelic Atlassian Sub-second propagation

DetectionNewrelic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. NRQL polling over timestamp windows for telemetry (events, metrics, logs, spans).

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Atlassian through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Newrelic: NerdGraph allows 25 concurrent requests per user and returns HTTP 429 when exceeded; NRQL run via APIs is capped at 3,000 queries per account per minute with a 5-second default timeout and about 5,000 data points per response. The Event API accepts 1MB per POST and 100,000 POSTs per minute per account.

Newrelic

Integration surface
NerdGraph (GraphQL) plus REST data-ingest APIs (Event, Metric, Log, Trace) and the legacy REST API v2
Authentication
User API key (prefixed NRAK-) sent in the API-Key header for NerdGraph queries and mutations; the data-ingest APIs (Event, Metric, Log) use a License/Ingest key in the Api-Key header. Keys, endpoints, and data are region-scoped (US, EU, JP).
Change detection
NRQL polling over timestamp windows for telemetry (events, metrics, logs, spans); config objects such as dashboards, alert policies, and workloads carry no modified-date and are diffed on each run. Alert workflows can push outbound webhook notifications for near-real-time alerting. No CDC feed.
