Overview
The Jira integration with Progress® Sitefinity® CMS, enabled through Sitefinity Integration Hub, bridges the gap between digital content management and development or support teams. Sync project tasks, statuses, and updates with Sitefinity to improve communication, shorten turnaround times, and give visibility into blockers or backlog items.
What Is Jira?
Jira is a project and issue tracking platform developed by Atlassian, used widely by engineering, support, and product teams to manage software development, feature requests, bugs, and agile workflows.
Integration Overview
With Sitefinity Integration Hub, users can connect Jira to Sitefinity CMS through a no-code, recipe-based interface. Teams can automate the syncing of key Jira fields—like issue types, statuses, priorities, and assignments—into Sitefinity. Non-technical users can configure triggers, filters, and mapping logic visually.
Benefits
Keep Content and Development Teams in Sync
Connect editorial workflows with technical task tracking so writers, marketers, and developers stay aligned.

Reduce Manual Communication
Eliminate email chains and Slack updates by surfacing Jira status where content teams work—in the CMS interface.

Content teams can flag bugs or requests in Sitefinity, which automatically create Jira issues with pre-filled details, reducing friction and time to resolution.
No-Code Setup
Create and deploy workflows quickly using Sitefinity's no-code recipe builder—ideal for teams without development resources.
