Need integration for Salesforce users to raise/manage issues in JSM (Cloud) project
Asked by Michael Barnett:

A new customer that uses Salesforce for their internal service desk needs to raise new issues and manage their existing issues in our Jira Service Management (Cloud) project.

What products are available to allow this type of integration and how easy is it to set up?

This integration is possible by opting for a secure connector, which facilitates the exchange of data and unlocks the potential for more sophisticated interactions between Salesforce and Jira. Among several tools available, **[Sinergify](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1224135/sinergify-a-salesforce-jira-connector?utm_source=Community&utm_medium=Jashan&utm_campaign=Atlassian)** is one of the Salesforce-native applications that provides a bi-directional sync for issues, comments, and attachments.  

The [**Solution**](https://www.sinergify.com/?utm_source=Community&utm_medium=Jashan&utm_campaign=Atlassian) allows Salesforce users to raise new issues directly in Jira Service Management and manage existing ones without switching platforms, saving time and effort.  

I hope this help.

body: Hi [@Michael Barnett](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4863791), I'm from Unito - we're an Atlassian partner with a 2-way integration for Jira Service Management and Salesforce. Here's a [Salesforce Jira tutorial](https://bit.ly/ATL-Jira-Salesforce-Guide) I just put together explaining how to connect and sync tasks from Salesforce to JSM where they appear as newly created issues. From beginning to end, the process takes me around 10 minutes.

Unito is a paid app, but it's definitely the easiest integration solution on the market for syncing tasks to issues in bulk.

The general framework works like this (also outlined in that guide):

1. You pick a Salesforce organization and a Jira Service Management project
2. Set a "flow" direction - this tells the integration whether to create new objects in Salesforce or issues in Jira automatically (based on your manual activity in the other).
3. Apply rules to filter unrelated tasks or issues from syncing (e.g., Only sync Salesforce tasks with the "service desk" label etc...)
4. Link fields between Salesforce and Jira Service Management - in the final step, you create "pairs" of fields between the two platforms so that Unito knows that your Jira summary should match to the Salesforce task title, or that the assignee in Jira is the same as a "name" in Salesforce, etc. You also set sync direction here for real-time updates, so that as your team works in one place, you can see those changes appear automatically in the other.

Let me know if you have any questions! Happy to set you up with a live demo with my team.
