Introduction

You can synchronize Jira Cloud issues with other work management systems, supported by Exalate.

For example, you can sync your JIRA Cloud and JIRA Server, even if the JIRA server is in a private network and you cannot access it from the outside.

You can also sync local projects within the same Jira Instance. For more details check out the typical use cases. 

Take a look at the example integrations below:

2. Set up a connection.

Exalate syncs your data through connections between two instances, or locally on the same instance. You can establish a public, private, or local connection.

In Exalate for Jira Cloud, there are three configuration types of connections:

  • Basic—a connection can be established for a limited set of issue fields. Recommended for use cases of basic complexity.
  • Visual—a connection between instances is established using a single visual interface. Requires admin access to both instances. Recommended for use cases of basic to intermediate complexity.
  • Script—each side of the connection is set up separately with groovy-based script sync rules. Recommended for more complex and advanced use cases.

Check out common Exalate use cases.
