Confluence + Jira Integration
Connecting Confluence (documentation) and Jira (project management) reduces the gap between documentation and project management in your team's daily workflow. Confluence lists it as a native integration, so setup takes minutes rather than Zapier workarounds.
Integration Status
Native integration available
Confluence lists Jira as a supported integration. Set it up via Confluence's integrations settings — no third-party automation platform required.
What teams use this integration for
Sync status automatically
When work progresses in Confluence, reflect that change in Jira automatically — reducing manual status updates and keeping stakeholders informed without extra effort.
Centralise team notifications
Route Confluence activity — new comments, assignments, and status changes — into Jira so your team stays informed in the tool they already have open.
Automate weekly reporting
Pull Confluence velocity, completed tasks, and blockers into Jira for weekly team reviews, sprint retrospectives, or stakeholder updates.
Connect planning to delivery
Link Confluence roadmap items to work tracked in Jira, giving stakeholders visibility from strategy to shipped — without switching between tools.
How to set it up
- Open Confluence's workspace settings and navigate to the Integrations or Apps section — Confluence lists 24+ native integrations.
- Search for Jira and click Connect or Install. You may need workspace owner or admin permissions in Confluence — check your role under Settings → Members.
- Authorise your Jira account when prompted. Use the account that owns the resources you want to sync (not a personal account).
- Configure the integration: choose which Confluence projects or spaces sync with which Jira resources, and select which events trigger notifications or updates.
- Test with a real item — create a task in Confluence and verify it appears or triggers correctly in Jira before enabling for your full team.
