Automate change management with Jenkins
Changes to Jira Service Management Free and Standard
As of October 16, 2024, change management in Jira Service Management has moved from Standard to Premium. Existing service projects in Free and Standard will continue to support existing request types and work types. Read more about the plan changes.
To access Jira Service Management Premium features, subscribe to a Service Collection Premium or Enterprise plan.
Deployment events sent from Jenkins can trigger Jira automation rules, allowing you to automate a wide range of commonly used manual change management steps.
For example, you could automatically:
create, update, or transition change requests
perform risk and impact assessments
trigger approvals and dynamically set approvers based on risk, impact, or affected service
notify stakeholders or end users of changes in real-time, via email, Slack, or Webhook
update a change request when implementation is complete, including whether or not it was successful

The Jira Cloud plugin for Jenkins can also help you automate your change management processes using deployment tracking and deployment gating, which can be used separately or in combination within a single Jenkins pipeline.
