  2. Click on Apps in the navigation.
  3. Click on Explore more apps.
  4. In the search field, type "Teams Integration+".

  8. Wait a few moments while the app installs.

  11. Go to Microsoft Teams in a new tab or window.

    1. If you haven't installed the app in Teams yet, follow this guide.
  13. Once installed, go to the chat with the bot and type “status” command

Once you have finished, there are many ways to check if things are working properly

The status command
  1. Type the status command in chat with the bot.
  2. You should see 3 green check marks and the URL of the Jira you are connected to.
    If so, then the bot is fully operational and is ready to use!
    If not, go through the connect process starting from the beginning.

Now you're ready to start using the bot.

The help command
  1. Go to chat with the bot OR a channel with the bot installed.
  2. Type the help command and send it (if in a public channel, add @Jira Integration Plus before the word help ("@Jira Integration Plus help")

Load a default tab

  • If they work as described, you have set up the bot correctly!
  • If not, redo the process in this article.

Not working?

  1. Make sure a Jira global admin installed the app to Jira.
  2. Make sure a user with Teams administrator permissions installed the app to Teams. If not, after the app is fully installed and set up, make sure a user with Teams administrator permissions consents on behalf of your organization.
    1. After you install the app, all Teams admins will be prompted to grant permission to Jira Integration+. After one does, the app will work.
    2. Contact a Teams admin to grant permission to the app after you install.
  3. Make sure pop-ups are allowed.
