Connecting to Jira On-Prem
OX supports integrating with both JIRA Cloud and JIRA On-Prem for ticketing automation.
When integrating OX with JIRA On-Prem, you can automatically create and update tickets based on issues detected in your environment. Unlike JIRA Cloud, JIRA On-Prem requires additional configuration steps, particularly around the URL format and authentication method.
When connecting OX to a JIRA On-Prem instance, you need to decide what authentication method to use for the connection. You define the method by defining the URL format, as follows:
Token-based authentication (this method is recommended, as it is more secure)
https://<domain>/release/v${version}/api/2/bearerBasic username-password authentication
https://<domain>/release/v${version}/api/2The integration process includes the following:
Get Jira tokens: for Jira on Cloud, for Jira On-Prem
Connect to: Jira on Cloud, Jira On-Prem
Prerequisites

Step 1: Getting Jira On-Prem token [Jira]
Log in to your Jira Data Center / Server instance using your assigned user account.
Click your profile avatar and select Profile.

Note: This process may differ slightly based on your JIRA On-Prem version.
