Get started with Jira Service Management for admins
Your first stop for learning how to get started with Jira Service Management.
This article highlights a new alerting feature that's natively available in Jira Service Management which is gradually rolling out to some Jira Service Management Cloud customers. It may not yet be visible or available on your site.
Use Jira Service Management's Dripstat integration to send Dripstat alerts to Jira Service Management API with detailed information. Jira Service Management acts as a dispatcher for Dripstat alerts, determines the right people to notify based on on-call schedules– notifies via email, text messages (SMS), phone calls, and iPhone & Android push notifications, and escalates alerts until the alert is acknowledged or closed.
When alert is created on Dripstat, an alert is created in Jira Service Management automatically through the integration.
Dripstat is an API integration. Setting it up involves the following steps:
Add a Dripstat integration in Jira Service Management
Configure the integration in Dripstat
Bidirectional integrations aren’t supported in Free and Standard plans. All the other integrations are supported at a team level in Free and Standard; however, for their outgoing part to work, you need to upgrade to a higher plan. To add any integration at a site level through Settings (gear icon) > Products (under JIRA SETTINGS) > OPERATIONS, you need to be either on Premium or Enterprise.
Adding an integration from your team’s operations page makes your team the owner of the integration. This means Jira Service Management only assigns the alerts received through this integration to your team.
To add a Dripstat integration in Jira Service Management:
Go to Settings > Integrations.
Select Add integration.
Run a search and select “Dripstat”.
On the next screen, enter a name for the integration.
Optional: Select a team in Assignee team if you want a specific team to receive alerts from the integration.
Select Continue.
The integration is saved at this point.
Expand the Steps to configure the integration section and copy the API key.
You will use this key while configuring the integration in Dripstat later.
Select Turn on integration.
The rules you create for the integration will work only if you turn on the integration.
To configure the integration of Dripstat with Jira Service Management, complete the following steps:
In DripStat, go to the Alerts page.
Select Integrations.
Select Jira Service Management.
Select "Opsgenie" as the action type.
Copy the API key copied previously into API Key.
Select Save.
This is an API integration, so dynamic properties (custom priority, payload, url, and headers) aren’t not available.
