Jira Integration#

Atlassian’s JiraTM can be used in conjunction with Lattix Architect to track rule violations. Create and track Jira tickets directly from Lattix Architect when rule violations are detected.

Install the Jira Integration Script#

Download the Jira script available as part of the Lattix install, or from the CodeClinic Software Delivery Portal. To make the script available, unzip the file and place it in the Program Files/Lattix xx.x/scripts folder or wherever Lattix Architect is installed on your system. Then restart Lattix Architect.

Configure Lattix Architect#

Configure the Jira Integration by entering the Jira application URL, your username, and your password in the Jira config section of the Preferences dialog box.
