Frequently asked questions
How do I connect Standupify to Jira for daily reports?
To connect, navigate to the 'Questions' tab in Standupify, then follow the prompts to authorize Standupify with your Atlassian account. You'll select your Jira instance and grant the necessary permissions.
What Jira permissions does Standupify require to function?
Standupify requires extensive 'View' access to various Jira entities such as issues, fields, projects, users, comments, and worklogs. Crucially, it also needs permission to 'Validate Jql' to process your custom queries.
How can I customize the Jira tasks that appear in my Standupify daily report?
After authorizing Standupify, you can define custom Jira Query Language (JQL) queries within the bot's settings. These queries determine precisely which completed and planned tasks are pulled from Jira for your personalized daily report.
What is JQL and how does Standupify use it for task management?
JQL stands for Jira Query Language, a powerful tool for searching and filtering issues in Jira. Standupify uses your custom JQL queries to intelligently fetch and present only the most relevant tasks for your daily check-ins, automating your task management.
How does Standupify use my Atlassian account data for standups?
Standupify uses your Atlassian account data, specifically the Jira issues accessible through the granted permissions and your configured JQL, to generate personalized lists of completed and planned tasks for your daily standup reports in Google Chat.
What are the steps to authorize Standupify for Jira integration?
The steps involve initiating the integration from Standupify's 'Questions' tab, redirecting to an Atlassian authentication page, selecting your Atlassian instance, reviewing and granting the requested 'View' and 'Validate Jql' permissions, and then accepting the terms.
