# Jira

> Export Finseo tasks as Jira Cloud issues with formatted descriptions.

# Jira

Connect Jira Cloud to export Finseo tasks as Jira issues into any project. Descriptions arrive fully formatted with the data evidence and step-by-step instructions.

## What you can do

* Export any Finseo task as a Jira issue with one click.
* Auto-export new tasks via automation rules (filtered by category and impact).
* Assign exported issues to Jira users directly from Finseo.

## Get your API token

Finseo authenticates with Basic auth: your Atlassian account email plus an API token.

1. Go to [id.atlassian.com → Security → API tokens](https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens).
2. Click **Create API token**, name it, and copy the value.

See Atlassian's [API token docs](https://support.atlassian.com/atlassian-account/docs/manage-api-tokens-for-your-atlassian-account/) for details.

## Connect

1. In Finseo, open **Integrations → Jira → Connect**.
2. Enter your site URL (`your-team.atlassian.net`), your account email, and the API token.
3. Save.

## Export tasks

* On the **Tasks** page, open a task and use **Export → Jira**, then pick the target project.
* Optionally choose a Jira assignee.

## Automation rules

Under **Tasks → Automation**, create rules that push new Finseo tasks into Jira automatically — filtered by category and minimum impact, with an optional default assignee.

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Authentication fails">
    Use the email address of the Atlassian account that created the token, and the bare site domain without `https://` (e.g. `acme.atlassian.net`). Tokens created for a different Atlassian site will not work.

  <Accordion title="A project is missing in the picker">
    Finseo lists projects your Jira user can create issues in. Check your project permissions in Jira, then reopen the picker.
