Work with ALM items in Jira Cloud
If your team uses both Perforce ALM and Jira, you may be able to view ALM items attached to items in Jira and add new ALM items from Jira.
Before you can work with ALM items in Jira, the administrator must install and configure the Perforce ALM for Jira app for your Jira instance. To learn more, see Install and configure the Perforce ALM for Jira app.
The instructions on this page are for version 3 and later of the Perforce ALM for Jira app. For instructions on working with ALM items in Jira Data Center and legacy versions of the app (versions 1 and 2) in Jira Cloud, see Work with ALM items in Jira Cloud. If you are not sure about the app version your team uses, contact your Jira administrator.
