Sync your Slack threads with Jira work items
Thread sync adds the messages from a Slack thread as comments on a Jira work item. This keeps the conversation context attached to the work item and makes it searchable in Jira
When you sync a thread, all previous messages are synced, not just new ones. Any new replies added after syncing will continue to appear as comments on the Jira work item automatically.
Sync a thread
In a channel where you've pasted a Jira link, select Sync with thread on the link preview card.
Select Confirm for all thread replies (including previous messages) to be added as comments to the Jira work item.
Unsync a thread
If you no longer want new Slack messages syncing to Jira, you can unsync the thread at any time:
Select More actions () on the link preview card in the thread.
Select Unsync thread.
Messages already synced will remain as comments on the Jira work item. Only new replies will stop syncing.
When you create a single work item using the Jira app, the Slack thread is automatically synced with that work item's comments. Synced threads are not enabled by default when multiple work items are created simultaneously in the same thread.
