The first step is to create a Jira token that can be used with your Threatrix integraition. We suggest creating a service accont that can be used for this purpose, but any user account, with appropriate privledges, can be used for this purpose.

  2. Click "Create New Token" button and give it a name and expiration date. Be aware that your Threatrix integration will stop functioning after the token expires.

  3. Be sure to Copy the token and store it somewhere safe. \

Setup Integration

Now that we have all of the necessary data to contiguration the integration, let's get started.

  1. Login to Threatrix Threat Center and navigate to Admin -> Settings -> Integration -> Jira Integration

  2. Enter the values collected in the previous steps

  3. Click "Save" to commit the changes.

Creating Jira Tickets

Jira tickets can be created in three ways:

  1. Directly from the Vulnerability details screen. Once the ticket is created, a link to the Ticket will be added to the license details screen.

  2. Directly from license details screen:

    Create Jira ticlet from License Details

    Once the ticket is created, a link to the Ticket will be added to the license details screen.

  3. Automatically from within polices. From withing policies, edit the policy for which you'd like to create a Jira ticket. Edit the policy and Navigate to the actions tab. Select "Add new action" and then select "Issue" from the Action drop down and Type Jira. You may also add notes to the policy which will flow through to the Jira ticket to provide guidance to your development team.
