Creating Issues

Bonfire makes it super easy and fast for you to create comprehensive issues straight to JIRA, without ever leaving your web application.

Creating the issue

Creating an issue is done under the "Create Issue" tab in the Bonfire browser extension. As you select the project and the issue type, Bonfire will update the issue creation form to reflect the same fields that are available in JIRA's create issue web interface. Bonfire also allows you to quickly attach screenshots to the issue you are creating with the Attach screenshot function.

You can create issues faster by using Templates and Variables to pre-fill information. 

Creating Sub-Tasks

An issue can also be raised as a sub-task by selecting a sub-task issue type in the project create form.

The parent of the sub-task is a "Related Issue" attached to the current Session. Only valid sub-task types for the project will be selectable. You will then be able to select which of the related issues should be the parent of the issue currently being created.

Contextual information for issues created using Bonfire

When creating an issue using Bonfire, useful contextual information is captured to assist in debugging the issue. This information can be viewed on the issue page.
