JIRA's FishEye integration allows you to browse your source-control repository from inside JIRA, provided you are using Atlassian FishEye with your source-control repository. FishEye integration is implemented as a plugin (drop-in extension) to JIRA, which ships with JIRA.

For JIRA to successfully integrate with FishEye, the FishEye web server must first be set up to receive remote API calls. A FishEye administrator can do this by visiting the FishEye web server's 'Server Settings' page (which can be accessed from FishEye's 'Administration' area) and setting the 'Remote API' setting to 'On'. See Configuring the FishEye Web Server for more information.
