To be able to integrate Swarmia with your on-premise Jira instance:
It must be reachable over the public internet, at a specific hostname, using HTTPS
It must be able to send webhook requests to the public internet, using HTTPS
You must be using Jira version 8.14 or above
If your Jira instance is behind a firewall that only allows traffic from specific IP addresses, make sure to allow these addresses:
Inbound IPs (we make HTTPS requests to your Jira instance): 34.89.165.89 & 35.234.103.84
Outbound IPs (your Jira instance makes HTTPS requests to us): 34.117.202.112 (hook.swarmia.com) & 34.107.207.241 (app.swarmia.com)
We will need to create a , which will be used for authentication between Swarmia and your Jira instance. This token needs to be tied to a specific user account, and it is better to create a dedicated user for this purpose, instead of tying it to someone's personal Jira account.
Go to your Jira user administration, and create a new user. You may use your own email address, and an arbitrary, secure password. The username and full name can also be whatever you prefer, as long as they help you identify this service account later.
To create the personal access token, you'll need to log into your Jira instance using the service account you just created.
Once logged in, navigate to Profile → Personal Access Tokens → Create token, and make sure you uncheck "Automatic expiry".
Once you create the token, it will be displayed only once. Make sure you keep a copy of it in a safe place for the next step.
While the setup for Jira Cloud is fully automated, an on-prem Jira instance requires a bit of manual work on our part.
Contact your account manager with your Jira instance URL, and the Personal Access Token you previously generated, and we'll take it from there.
Once we have finished setup on our end, we'll send you an email with a special webhook URL tied to your Jira instance. It will look something like this:
With this URL at hand, navigate to Jira Administration → System → WebHooks → Create a WebHook, and fill in the form as follows:
Once the Jira integration is complete, proceed to organizational and team settings:
