Linking Assets objects to Jira work items

Why link an object to a work item

Linking an Assets object to a work item connects the two, so the people working the item can see the object it relates to - a laptop, a service, a contract, a vendor - and so the object shows which work items are connected to it. It works for any kind of object, not just IT assets.

Link an object

You link objects through the Assets objects custom field. An admin adds the field to the relevant work item type, then anyone editing the work item can select the object or objects to attach. For what the field is and how to set it up, see What is the Assets objects field? and Set up the Assets objects field.

View or remove a link

Once an object is added through the custom field, the work item appears against that object in the linked work items section of the object's view in Assets, so you can move between the two. To remove a link, edit the work item and clear the object from the Assets objects field.
