Set up Cases and Jira

Set up cases in a space to allow users in the space to keep track of security tasks and add Jira issues directly from within the Mondoo Console. Cases setup involves configuring Mondoo to integrate with Jira.

For an overview of cases, read Track and Fix Findings with Cases and Your Ticket System.

note

Mondoo offers an alternative method for sharing cases with Jira: an email integration. This approach lets you tap into the automation features of Jira's incoming mail handler. To learn how to create an email integration for cases, read Set up Cases to Email Your Ticket System.

Prerequisites​
