Jira Login

Used to store credentials for later use by other Jira Actions

Only supports Jira Cloud. Does not support Jira Server (hosted)

This is required by other actions like:

• Transition - Transition a Jira issue
• Comment - Add a comment to a Jira issue
• Create - Create a new Jira issue
• Find issue key - Search for an issue key in commit message, branch name, etc. This issue key is then saved and used by the next actions in the same workflow
• TODO - Create a Jira issue for each TODO comment in committed code
• CLI - Wrapped go-jira CLI for common Jira actions

Usage

on: push

name: Jira Example

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Jira Example
    steps:
