Connect Claude & ChatGPT to Jira Software Cloud

Ask your AI what is left in the current sprint, or to move five backlog issues into the next one. It reads boards, sprints, backlogs, epics and releases, creates and updates sprints, moves issues between sprints, the backlog and epics, and sets estimates such as story points. It covers the agile side of Jira, so sprint planning can happen in the chat.

Try asking

“What is still open in the active sprint on the WEB board?”
The AI finds the board, gets the active sprint and lists its issues, narrowed with JQL to the ones not done.
“Create Sprint 14 on the WEB board for the next two weeks, with the goal 'checkout redesign'.”
It creates a future sprint with name, goal, start and end date.
“Move WEB-101, WEB-104 and WEB-110 into Sprint 14.”
It moves the issues from the backlog into the sprint.

What your AI can do

Boards and backlog

List boards and their projects, read the backlog and all board issues, and filter with JQL.

Sprints

Create, start, update and close sprints, and move up to 50 issues at a time into a sprint or back to the backlog.

Epics, estimates and releases

Read and update epics, add or remove issues, set estimates such as story points, and list board releases.

“Which epics on the board are not finished yet?”
It lists the epics that are not done and the issues in the one you pick.
“Set 5 story points on WEB-120.”
It sets the estimate on the issue for that board.
“Start Sprint 14 today.”
It sets the sprint to active with start and end dates. Because this is a full update, it passes the name and goal along so they are kept.

Questions

What can the AI do in Jira Software Cloud?

It can read boards, board projects, sprints, backlog and board issues, epics, releases and the agile fields of an issue, such as sprint, epic and estimate. It can create and update sprints, move issues into a sprint, back to the backlog or into an epic, remove issues from an epic, update epics and set estimates.

Does the AI see my Jira Software Cloud credentials?

No. Your Jira Software Cloud credentials are encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save them, they are not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start read-only. Starting or closing a sprint and moving many issues at once change your team's plan, so those tools can require your approval before they run. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your HeyMyApps link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

HeyMyApps has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own Jira Software Cloud site.

How is this different from the Jira connection?

The Jira connection works with issues: searching, creating, editing, statuses, comments and work logs. Jira Software Cloud covers the agile part: boards, sprints, backlog, epics, estimates and releases. Both use your email and an API token, so you can connect both. HeyMyApps is an independent service and is not affiliated with Atlassian.
