What’s it handy for?

A major benefit of integrating Slack and Jira Software is that notifications become two-way, with options to comment, assign, transition, and more from Slack. This allows users to collaborate and work on Jira issues directly from Slack, which can help streamline workflows and save valuable time. Messages in Slack can also be used to create new issues in Jira, allowing users to quickly create new tasks and assign them to team members.

Why you need this

Ease collaboration: The two-way integration between Slack and Jira Software allows for seamless collaboration between team members. Users can quickly and easily assign tasks, comment on issues, and transition them to different stages, all without leaving.
Improve visibility: With notifications becoming two-way, team members can stay up-to-date on Jira issues even if they don't have direct access to the Jira platform. This can help improve visibility and ensure that everyone has the information they need to make informed decisions and complete tasks.
Streamline task management: By creating new Jira issues directly within Slack, team members can quickly and easily add tasks to the backlog, assign them to team members, and set due dates. This can help improve task management and ensure that tasks are completed on time.
Enhance transparency: With the ability to comment and assign tasks within Slack, team members can keep track of what's happening with Jira issues in real-time. This can help improve transparency and ensure that everyone is on the same page.
