This page describes how to add a new application link in JIRA. The process for adding an application link is different depending on whether or not the application you are linking JIRA to supports Atlassian's Application Links. If you are linking JIRA to an application without Application Links, you will need to perform additional configuration steps in that application, since the Application Links function in JIRA is unable to automatically configure authentication in applications that do not support Application Links. Please read the appropriate set of instructions below: Linking to an application that supports Application Links. Linking to an application that does not support Application Links. On this page:
