Once the plugin is installed, navigate to the Managed Apps → Global Configuration (STORYD INTEGRATION).
In the Integration Configuration tab, enable the “Enable connection requests“. This setting allows integration connections to be initiated. This should be enabled while the connection to StorYd is being initialized but should be disabled once the connection has been initialized. This will prevent unwanted connection requests from StorYd servers.
Once this has been enabled, navigate to the “Integration“ tab on the StorYd Application admin page. Click the plus icon to add a new integration.
In the popup select “Jira Server/Data-Center“ for the integration type, give the integration a relevant name (this can be changed later), enter the Jira base URL of your Jira instance (e.g. https://www.jira.examplecompany.com), and then click “ADD”.
Once added the popup will automatically close and you will see the integration that was created.
By default, the connection will be disabled in Jira after the connection is initiated. Navigate back to the Integration page in Jira, Managed Apps → Global Configuration (STORYD INTEGRATION). Note, You will need to refresh this page if you already have it open. Once on this page, you should see a new Integration configuration. This will display the Region, Company Domain, Company Name, and the enabled status, which by default will be disabled. Click the “Enabled” button to enable the integration.
Once enabled navigate back to the integration tab in the StorYd Application and click “Refresh Status”.
After the status has been refreshed, you should see the status change to “Connection is Active“.
At this point the connection is active and you can now perform integration actions. Since the connection has been initiated we can now disable the “Enable connection requests“ in Jira. Navigate back to the integration tab in Jira and disable this setting. This will prevent further unwanted connection requests from being initiated and disabling this once the connection has been established is more secure.
