Assigning tickets to Jira users from Slack with CLI
Note: You can message the bot directly, or in a channel that includes the bot.
The format of the command is as follows:
- The "assign" command
- The ticket number
- The user you are assigning the ticket to
The bot will then respond with the following output to confirm your ticket was assigned.
Troubleshooting
If for some reason the assign feature is not working follow these steps to fix your issues.
User not found
All users need to authenticate to the Jira Integration+ bot. This establishes a connection for that user between Slack and Jira. This allows Slack to know about that Jira user.
You have two options:
- Use the email address of the user instead of the @ dialog in slack
- Ask the user to complete the auth process
Issue not found
If the issue is not found check to see if you can access the issue directly in JIRA to ensure the ticket id is correct. Also ensure that your user account has permission to see the issue.
