Jira
Learn how to set up Jira as a notification endpoint to automatically create issues from cside security alerts.
Jira notification endpoints are included on the Enterprise plan and available as an add-on for Business plans. Contact sales to get started.
Overview
Connect cside to your Jira instance to automatically create issues when security alerts are triggered. Each alert creates a Jira issue in the project and issue type you configure, giving your team full visibility within their existing workflow.
Prerequisites
Before setting up a Jira notification endpoint, you need to connect your Jira account as a team integration:
- Open the dashboard and navigate to your Team Settings
- Select the Integrations tab
- Click Connect next to Jira and follow the OAuth authorization flow
- Once authorized, you can set up Jira notification endpoints on any domain in the team
Setting up a Jira Notification Endpoint
- Open the dashboard, navigate to your Domain Settings and select the Notifications tab
- Click Add under Notification Endpoints
- Select Jira from the options
- Click Next to proceed to the configuration screen
- In the Configure Jira Endpoint modal, fill in the required fields:
- Project: Select the Jira project where issues should be created
- Issue Type: Select the issue type (e.g., Bug, Task, Epic)
- Click Create Jira Endpoint to complete the setup
Once created, cside will automatically create a Jira issue in your selected project whenever a security alert is triggered for this domain.
What does a Jira issue look like?
Each Jira issue created by cside includes:
- Summary:
cside Security Alert: {alert type} on {domain} - Description with the following details:
- The affected domain
- The alert type
- The target (script URL or hash that triggered the alert)
- The action taken
If you configured a priority or labels when creating the endpoint, those will also be applied to each issue.
Testing
After creating a Jira endpoint, you’ll be prompted to Send a Test Notification directly from the setup flow. This creates a test issue in your Jira project so you can verify the integration is working immediately.
You can also send a test notification at any time from the Notifications tab in your domain settings.
Next steps
- Add more notification endpoints - you can configure multiple endpoints per domain (e.g., Jira + Slack webhook) from the Notifications tab in your domain settings
- Connect other integrations - visit Team Settings > Integrations to connect Linear or other services
- Configure additional domains - each domain can have its own set of notification endpoints, so repeat the setup for any other domains you want to monitor
Removing a Jira Endpoint
To remove a Jira notification endpoint:
- Navigate to your Domain Settings and select the Notifications tab
- Find the Jira endpoint in the list
- Click the delete button next to the endpoint
