Connect or remove security containers in Jira
Once you’ve connected a security tool to your Jira site, you can add security containers to your space and view vulnerabilities in the security feature.
You can manage security containers from either the Security page or the Development page in Jira—any changes you make to container connections on one page are automatically synced to the other, so both pages always reflect the same data.
Each container shows the name of the security tool it belongs to, and how recently it was updated. Select a container to view more details, or go to your security tool to manage it.
You must have the following to do the things described on this page:
Role: Space admin
Before you begin
Make sure that:
your site administrator has connected a security tool to your Jira site
the security feature or the development feature is enabled for your space
Connect security containers to a space
You can connect as many security containers to a space as you like, and a container can also be connected to more than one space at a time. However, to help prevent multiple teams from seeing the same vulnerability and duplicating work, we recommend connecting each container to just one space whenever possible.
To connect security containers from the Security page:
Make sure the security feature is enabled in your space.
From your space's navigation, select Security.
If there aren’t any containers connected to your space yet, select Finish setup to connect the first one.
If there’s already at least one container connected to your space, select Connect security containers to add more.
Select your security tool, then select Connect security containers.
Select the containers you’d like to connect, then select Connect.
To connect security containers from the Development page:
Select Development from your space’s navigation.
Select Vulnerabilities under the Related work section.
If there aren’t any containers connected to your space yet, select Finish setup to connect the first one.
If there’s already at least one container connected to your space, select the manage connection icon to add more.
In the Tools sidebar, look for your security tool, then select Connect containers.
Select the containers you’d like to connect, then select Connect.
Remove security containers from a space
To remove security containers from the Security page:
From your space's navigation, select Security.
Select Connect security containers.
Select the relevant security tool for the container you want to remove.
Select the more actions icon (•••) next to the container you want to remove, then select Remove connection.
To remove security containers from the Development page:
From your space's navigation, select Development.
Select the connection icon [Connect icon] under the Related work section.
Select the relevant security tool for the container you want to remove.
Select the more actions icon (•••) next to the container you want to remove, then select Remove connection.
