Getting Started

The Data Studio Connector for Jira Cloud is designed to simplify data import into Data Studio.

Step 1: Grant Permissions

If you are a Jira Administrator

• Grant permission to individual users or groups so they can create, edit, watch, and export data sources.

• Administrators can work with the Data Studio Connector by default.

🔗 Learn how to grant permission

If you are a Regular User

• Ask your Jira Administrator to grant the required permission.

Step 2: Create an Export Password

• You’ll use this token as a password when connecting to Data Studio.

• Important: Keep the token secure because it provides access to your Jira data.

• If needed, configure separate tokens for supported apps to include their data in your Data Studio.

Step 3: Create a Data Source

• Think about the report you want to build or the analysis you want to run.

• Select the corresponding Jira fields through the Data Studio Connector. This set of fields is called a data source.

🔗 Learn on how to create data source

• Apply filters (such as project, issue type, or other criteria) to include only relevant data.

  • Without filters, the Data Studio Connector will export all data from your Jira instance.

Step 4: Import Data to Data Studio

• Connect using the export password you created.

• Import the datasets included in your data source.
