What you can do with Jira webhooks

Start an agent

Jira events can start a new agent run. For example, an agent that triages every new Jira issue.

Resume an agent

An agent can pause until the Jira event it needs arrives, for up to 90 days, and costs nothing while it waits.

Message an agent

Jira events can land in a running agent's conversation, so it acts on them with full context.

Events you can receive from Jira

Some of the events Jira sends. Your agent can filter on any of them.

View all events
jira:issue_created

Issue created

jira:issue_updated

Issue updated

jira:issue_deleted

Issue deleted

comment_created

Comment created

comment_updated

Comment updated

Example

An agent that triages every new Jira issue

import { webhook, webhooks } from "@trigger.dev/sdk";


export const jira = webhooks.endpoint.define({
  id: "jira",
  source: webhooks.jira(),
});


export const jiraEvents = webhook({
  id: "jira-events",
  endpoint: jira,
  filter: "event.webhookEvent == 'jira:issue_created'",
  onEvent: async ({ event }) => {
    // Start, resume or message your agent with the event
    console.log(event);
  },
});

Verified for you

webhooks.jira() checks the X-Hub-Signature header on every request. Bad requests are rejected before anything runs.

Retries don't run twice

Retries are matched on the x-atlassian-webhook-identifier header, so a retried webhook doesn't start a second run.

Filter before anything runs

Only the Jira events you care about start a run. Filtered webhooks use no compute.

See every delivery

Every webhook is recorded with its payload, headers and the agents it reached, so you can debug it and replay it.

Get started

  1. 1

    Set up the agent

    Copy the starter prompt into your coding agent, like Claude Code, Cursor or Codex. It creates a Trigger.dev project and adds the webhook endpoint. Prefer to write it yourself? Start from the example above.

  2. 2

    Add the webhook in Jira

    Deploy your project, or run trigger dev, and the endpoint appears on the Webhooks page of the Trigger.dev dashboard with its URL. Add that URL in Jira's webhook settings and pick the events you need. The endpoint's Copy setup prompt button gives your coding agent the exact steps.

  3. 3

    Add a signing secret

    On the endpoint's page in the Trigger.dev dashboard, choose Generate secret. Then paste it into Jira's webhook settings, so Trigger.dev can check every request really came from Jira.

  4. 4

    Try it

    Send a test event from Jira, or use the endpoint's Test tab. It appears on the endpoint's Deliveries tab, with the agents it reached.
