Escalate Jira Service Management tickets straight into GitHub

When a support incident needs engineering, your team turns a Jira Service Management ticket into a GitHub issue without leaving their tool. As developers push commits and close the issue, status and comments flow back to the original ticket in real time.

Auto-create GitHub issues from tickets

Every qualifying Jira Service Management incident or request spins up a matching GitHub issue automatically, so engineering picks up the work with full context and support never re-keys a thing.

Keep status and comments in sync both ways

Updates on a GitHub issue sync back to the Jira Service Management ticket, and replies from support reach developers — no status-chasing across tools.

Control what crosses over

Rule-based filters decide which tickets escalate and which fields map to each GitHub issue. Keep internal support notes private while the engineering-relevant details flow through cleanly.

Frequently asked questions about GitHub and Jira Service Management

Can a new Jira Service Management ticket automatically create a GitHub issue?

Yes. Unito’s two-way sync can create a GitHub issue whenever a Jira Service Management ticket meets your rules, then keep both in sync as status, fields, and comments change on either side.

Do comments and notes stay visible across both tools?

Yes. Unito syncs comments between Jira Service Management and GitHub and gives you control over private versus public visibility, so internal support notes stay internal while shared context reaches developers.

Does Unito support custom fields on both sides?

Yes. Unito maps native and custom fields field by field, with support for custom fields exposed through each tool’s API, and lets you set the flow direction for each mapping.

Who maintains the integration — do we need engineers?

No. Unito is no-code, so support or product owners can build and adjust the Jira Service Management and GitHub flow themselves. No scripting or dev-led upkeep is required to maintain it.
