Before using the Helix Plan Jira integration in your production environment, we recommend testing the integration using a test Helix Plan server and a sample Jira instance. This makes implementation easier and reduces the amount of changes you may need to make in the production environment.
Prerequisites
The following components are required to use the Helix Plan Jira integration.
- Helix Plan server with the SDK module enabled for your license. Contact Perforce Support for information about licenses.
- Helix Plan Jira integration (Node.js application) installed on Windows 10 or later or Windows Server 2016 or later
- Jira Cloud or Jira LTS Data Center 8.13 and later
The integration must be able to access the Helix Plan server on port 50256 and the port that the Jira instance uses.
