Atlassian Integration

Overview

DevArmor connects to your Atlassian site to read Jira tasks and Confluence pages in the context of threat model or design review workflows, and to push DevArmor tasks to Jira or link them to existing Jira tasks.

DevArmor's Atlassian integration requires installing our Atlassian Forge application.

Installing the Integration

When you install the Atlassian integration for the first time from the Integrations page, Atlassian asks you to select the Atlassian site (if you have more than one), grant the necessary permissions, and offers you to select the Atlassian app "connections". The Jira connection is required, and the Confluence connection is optional.

Upgrading the Integration

From time to time DevArmor releases new versions of the Atlassian application. In this case you will see an outdated app in your Atlassian site's listing of installed apps. Go to the Atlassian Admin Console and click Apps → Sites → (your site) → Connected apps:

Note the Update chip next to the DevArmor app. Click View app details in the Actions column:

Now click on the blue Update button at the top right corner of the page. This will open a dialog explaining the new capabilities offered and new permissions required. Click the Accept & Update button. After 5–10 seconds of processing, the latest version of the DevArmor app will be installed in your Atlassian site:

The app is always connected to Jira, however we have recently added support for Confluence, and if you did not previously connect the app to Confluence, you can do this by clicking the Manage connections button in the CONNECTED TO section.

This concludes the process for updating the DevArmor app in your Atlassian site. It can take up to 5 minutes for new permissions to propagate to our system and new functionality to be enabled.
