This article outlines how to use the Copy Activity in an Azure Data Factory or Synapse Analytics pipeline to copy data from Jira. It builds on the copy activity overview article that presents a general overview of copy activity.

Supported capabilities

This Jira connector is supported for the following capabilities:

Supported capabilities IR
Copy activity (source/-) ① ②
Lookup activity ① ②

① Azure integration runtime ② Self-hosted integration runtime

For a list of data stores that are supported as sources/sinks, see the Supported data stores table.

The service provides a built-in driver to enable connectivity, therefore you don't need to manually install any driver using this connector.

Getting started

To perform the Copy activity with a pipeline, you can use one of the following tools or SDKs:

Create a linked service to Jira using UI

Use the following steps to create a linked service to Jira in the Azure portal UI.

  1. Browse to the Manage tab in your Azure Data Factory or Synapse workspace and select Linked Services, then click New:

  2. Search for Jira and select the Jira connector.

    Select the Jira connector.

  3. Configure the service details, test the connection, and create the new linked service.

    Configure a linked service to Jira.

Connector configuration details

The following sections provide details about properties that are used to define Data Factory entities specific to Jira connector.

Linked service properties

The following properties are supported for Jira linked service:

Property Description Required
type The type property must be set to: Jira Yes
host The IP address or host name of the Jira service. (for example, jira.example.com) Yes
port The TCP port that the Jira server uses to listen for client connections. The default value is 443 if connecting through HTTPS, or 8080 if connecting through HTTP. No
username The user name that you use to access Jira Service. Yes
password The Atlassian API token (if two-step verification is enabled on the Atlassian account) or password corresponding to the user name that you provided in the username field. Mark this field as a SecureString to store it securely, or reference a secret stored in Azure Key Vault. Yes
useEncryptedEndpoints Specifies whether the data source endpoints are encrypted using HTTPS. The default value is true. No
useHostVerification Specifies whether to require the host name in the server's certificate to match the host name of the server when connecting over TLS. The default value is true. No
usePeerVerification Specifies whether to verify the identity of the server when connecting over TLS. The default value is true. No

Example:

{
    "name": "JiraLinkedService",
    "properties": {
        "type": "Jira",
        "typeProperties": {
            "host" : "<host>",
            "port" : "<port>",
            "username" : "<username>",

            }
        }
    }
}

tableName Name of the table. No (if "query" in activity source is specified)

Example

{
    "name": "JiraDataset",
    "properties": {
        "type": "JiraObject",
        "typeProperties": {},
        "schema": [],
        "linkedServiceName": {
            "referenceName": "<Jira linked service name>",
            "type": "LinkedServiceReference"
        }
    }
}

Copy activity properties

For a full list of sections and properties available for defining activities, see the Pipelines article. This section provides a list of properties supported by Jira source.

JiraSource as source

To copy data from Jira, set the source type in the copy activity to JiraSource. The following properties are supported in the copy activity source section:

Property Description Required
type The type property of the copy activity source must be set to: JiraSource Yes
query Use the custom SQL query to read data. For example: "SELECT * FROM MyTable". No (if "tableName" in dataset is specified)

Example:

"activities":[
    {
        "name": "CopyFromJira",
        "type": "Copy",
        "inputs": [
            {
                "referenceName": "<Jira input dataset name>",
                "type": "DatasetReference"
            }
        ],
        "outputs": [
            {
                "referenceName": "<output dataset name>",
                "type": "DatasetReference"
            }
        ],
        "typeProperties": {
