How can I customize JIRA Agile's Slack integration?

[Andrew Brown]

According to Slack, the JIRA integration only supports pushing updates to Slack when an issue is created, moved to `in progress`, or `done`/`closed`. However, I have created additional columns in JIRA Agile (e.g. Pull Request, QA) and would ideally like updates on Slack whenever an issue transitions between any of these columns.

Slack also says additional integration functionality will come in future updates to the JIRA integration, but is there any way to get these updates in any form now?

You can add a slack webhook into the transition within your workflow to allow notifications to be published

[Matheus Fernandes]

You should be able to, but according to https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/281688/webhook-not-giving-events-to-slack-com Slack may not accept that

Interesting... We've implemented it without a hitch

Hi John, We would really appreciate if you could mention the steps for your implementation of a slack webhook. That would be a generous help for this forum's community. Thanks in advance.

The instructions given over here should cover it off: https://slack.com/apps/A0F7YS3MZ-jira

We have developed such integration internally a while ago and now have released it to Marketplace for everyone to use (as a Codegeist competition participant)

Basically you can define events and JQL conditions you want to track and then set a customized message (message template is totally under your control) - supports slack, of course (as we use it internally) and now supports additionally: email, HipChat and fleep.

Currently works with cloud instances of JIRA.

You can do it in HipChat - https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.atlassian.labs.hipchat.hipchat-for-jira-plugin

I've written a tool which can connect any two REST APIs rather flexibly, maybe take a look at https://isthmus.want.ch/

If you are seeking for the real JIRA and Slack integration then you might want to check Jirio Slack app https://slack.com/apps/A0H95LXCH-jirio that allows posting issues and closing them.

Hi Andrew, did you find a resolution for this? I have the exact same problem. I tried to add the webhook to the transition post-function but it didn't work. Thanks

If you are on mobile - you can share your JIRA tickets and their status straight to slack using JIRA Board: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/jira-board-kanban-scrum-agile/id934196108?mt=8

You'll probably want to reach out to Slack and ask them (since they wrote the integration). Since the add-on isn't on the Atlassian Marketplace - I doubt that they're monitoring answers.atlassian.com
