What Can I Integrate Between Jira and Ivanti?

ZigiOps can integrate any Jira issue type with any Ivanti business object, enabling custom workflows tailored to your ITSM and project management processes.

Out of the box, ZigiOps provides ready-made integration templates for the most common Jira to Ivanti scenarios, including:

• OBM Events - Ivanti Incidents

• Ivanti Incidents - Jira Tasks (configurable)

These templates serve as preconfigured starting points and can be customized or extended to support additional business objects, Jira issue types, and workflows.

Common Ivanti entities	Common Jira issue types	Common fields typically synchronized
Incident	Task / Issue	Summary/Short Description, Description, Priority, Status/State, Owner/Assignee, Comments, Attachments
Any Ivanti business object	Any Jira issue type	Standard + custom fields, Status/State mappings, Correlation ID (recommended)

Note: ZigiOps supports synchronization of all standard and custom fields. The table above lists only the most commonly used fields.

How Does the Jira to Ivanti Integration Work?

ZigiOps connects Jira and Ivanti using their native APIs and acts as a secure integration layer between the two systems.

• No scripting or custom development required

• Configured entirely through the ZigiOps UI

• Supports polling- and event-based synchronization

• Does not permanently store transferred business data

The platform can be deployed on-premises or used as a cloud service, depending on your security and compliance requirements.
