This guide will help you quickly set up and start automating tasks with AI-driven scenarios in Jira using our plugin. Let’s walk through the essential steps to get you up and running in no time.

0. Open a Jira Issue to Access Just

Just is integrated into the Jira issue details screen via the issuePanel module. By default, all plugins are hidden. To open Just, simply navigate to any Jira issue and click the Just button located below the Summary field at the top of the issue details screen. This will launch the app within the issue context.

While the Just app plugin can be used in both modal and full-page views of Jira issues, we strongly recommend using the full-page view. This provides a cleaner, more organized layout and helps prevent the clutter often associated with modal windows.

1. Fulfill the "Project-related" Contexts

After installing the Just plugin, you’ll need to fulfill 4 project-related contexts:

  1. Project: Purpose

  2. Project: Target Audience

  3. Project: Features / Advantages

  4. Project: Tech Stack

All four project-related contexts have been pre-configured in each scenario version with sample data, potential data sources, and guidance for AI to identify missing or placeholder information. While these contexts are optional, completing them is highly recommended. By including details on purpose, target audience, features, and tech stack, you enhance the AI’s ability to generate accurate and business-relevant suggestions tailored to your project.

If you choose not to complete these fields, simply deactivate them in the scenario version you’re running. Please note that this may reduce the precision of AI-generated suggestions, potentially leading to less aligned recommendations for your needs.

2. Check Scenario Results with Default System API Key

You can immediately test AI scenarios using the default system API Key we’ve included. This key provides $2 of free credit for each supported AI provider, enabling you to experiment with AI-driven task automation without any setup.

How to Test:

  • Select a Jira task or issue.

  • Run the default AI scenario and check the results in real-time.

  • Feel free to adjust parameters and rerun for optimized outputs.

3. Build Your Own AI-Driven Scenario

Now that you’ve seen how the default scenario works, it’s time to create your own! Identify a repetitive or time-consuming task that could benefit from automation. With Just, you can design custom AI scenarios to automate processes tailored specifically to your needs.

4. Connect Your Own API Key

If you plan to use AI frequently, we recommend connecting your personal API key. This enables you to bypass the $2 credit limit provided by the default system key and fully unlock the capabilities of your chosen AI provider.

5. Just Use It!

You're all set! Now you can start using Just to automate tasks and improve your workflow with AI-driven scenarios.
