Overview

The Umbrella Cloud Cost enables you to get cost reports and alerts directly to Jira Data Center.

With Umbrella’s integration to Jira Data Center you can easily designate Umbrella alerts and reports to be open as an issue in a specific Jira Project with a given status.

Defining a Jira Data Center channel in Umbrella Cost

In Jira Data Center

Create a Personal API token (PAT) for the user you wish to use for this integration. See instructions here

This user must have access to list Jira projects and create issues in these projects.

You need not have mandatory custom-fields in your "create issue" form - as Umbrella will not fill them and the process will fail. The create issue form must be allowed to be saved with the basic built-in fields which JIRA requires.
