Jira
Monitor Jira for issues assigned to you, blockers, and overdue tickets. Get notified when something needs your attention.
Quick Setup
- Go to id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens
- Click Create API token → name it "Phyllax" → Create
- Copy the token
- In Phyllax → Integrations → Jira → Connect → enter your Jira domain (e.g.
yourcompany.atlassian.net), email, and the API token
Required Credentials
| Field | Where to find it |
|---|---|
| Jira Domain | Your Atlassian URL, e.g. yourcompany.atlassian.net |
| The email address associated with your Atlassian account | |
| API Token | id.atlassian.com → Security → Create and manage API tokens |
What Phyllax Monitors
| Schedule | What it checks |
|---|---|
| Issues assigned to me | New or updated issues assigned to you |
| Blockers on my tickets | Tickets you own that are marked as blocked |
| Overdue tickets | Tickets assigned to you that are past their due date |
Notification Actions
When Jira finds something important, the notification card shows:
- View issue — open the issue in Jira
- Add comment — AI drafts a comment you can edit before posting
- Assign to me — assign the issue to yourself
- Escalate — flag the issue for team leads
- Mark complete — transition the issue to done
All action chips that involve writing (Add comment, Escalate, etc.) open the AI draft panel — AI generates a suggested response that you can edit before posting.
Troubleshooting
"401 Unauthorized" error
Your API token or email is incorrect. Jira uses the combination of email + API token for authentication. Make sure the email matches your Atlassian account exactly.
"404 Not Found" for domain
Make sure you enter just the domain (e.g. yourcompany.atlassian.net), not the full URL with https:// or a trailing slash.
Can't see certain projects
Your Atlassian account needs access to the Jira projects you want to monitor. The API token inherits your account's permissions — it can only see what you can see in the Jira UI.
