Jira

Supported work item types

Epics Stories Tasks Bugs Subtasks + All additional native and custom work item types

Supported field types

String fields Number fields Date fields User fields Single select fields Multi select fields Radio buttons Comments Attachments Labels Sprint Full custom field support

Real-time data sync with full control, no coding required

Custom sync rules

Use intuitive rules (conditions or filters) to determine exactly what data to sync, such as work item type, sprint, iteration path, component, and more.

Deep field configurability

Configure your data flow field by field. Map any native or custom fields — including Jira custom fields and Azure DevOps custom fields — and define flow direction for each, with item matching to prevent duplicates.

Full relationship support

Sync hierarchies and lookup fields across tools, keeping initiatives, epics, stories, and sub-tasks fully intact across Azure DevOps and Jira.

Historical data sync

Sync historical records from any point in time, across even the largest datasets. Unito is purpose-built for enterprise-scale alignment across all your tools.

Comment & attachment support

Sync comments and attachments across Azure DevOps and Jira so cross-tool engineering teams always have full context, wherever they work.

Live data transformation

Transform data in real time with transformers to combine fields, convert HTML to text, extract values, or apply custom string logic through JSON settings.

Set up your Azure DevOps–Jira sync in simple steps

Connect your tools, choose what to sync, and launch your flow. No engineering required.

Enterprise-grade sync without the enterprise-grade complexity

iPaaS platforms take months and dedicated engineers to deploy and maintain. Atlassian-marketplace plugins only work inside Atlassian. Unito gives you no-code setup and field-level control between Azure DevOps and Jira, with room to extend beyond the Atlassian ecosystem.

Abstracted complexity

Connect Azure DevOps and Jira with an intuitive, out-of-the-box solution that allows for full configurability of your integration. No custom logic, scripting, or engineering-led setup required.
Abstracted complexity

Lower total cost of ownership

Most iPaaS tools drive up cost with long rollouts and heavy upkeep. Unito lowers TCO with fast time to value, and no specialized headcount to maintain or scale integrations.
Lower total cost of ownership

Scalability and resilience

Maintain real-time data consistency across datasets of any size. Unito's auto-scaling, intelligent API throttling and automatic recovery ensure uptime even during peak loads and tool downtimes.

Connect two engineering stacks without forcing a migration.

An acquisition merged two engineering orgs on different stacks. Or one region runs Jira and another runs Azure DevOps. Unito bridges both tools so teams keep working in the stack they know while leadership sees unified delivery.

Sync work items both directions in real time

A Jira issue links to an ADO work item and updates flow both ways. Status, assignee, sprint, and story points stay consistent so each team works in the stack they know without manual handoffs.

Bridge planning models without rebuilding either

Jira's project/epic/story model and ADO's initiative/epic/user-story model don't have to converge. Unito maps between them so each team keeps its planning approach intact.

Sync hierarchy across both engineering stacks

Map Azure DevOps initiatives, epics, and user stories to Jira equivalents. Iterations sync with sprints. Area paths sync with components.

Advanced syncing use cases for Azure DevOps Jira workflows

Story-level sync with references

Jira stories link to Azure DevOps user stories carrying components, tags, priority, and blocking relationships. Comments flow both ways so neither team switches tools to collaborate.

Full initiative-to-sub-task hierarchy

Azure DevOps initiatives, epics, user stories, and sub-tasks sync with their Jira equivalents. Attachments and comments stay with the right work item. Leadership gets an accurate rollup from either tool.

Sprint and iteration alignment

Jira sprints and Azure DevOps iterations map through Unito. Assign work to a Jira sprint and the matching iteration reflects it. When the sprint closes, completion status syncs to Azure DevOps automatically.

Frequently asked questions about Azure DevOps and Jira

Can I sync Jira and Azure DevOps without migrating off either tool?

Yes. Two-way sync keeps both tools current so teams continue working in their preferred platform. No migration required.

Does it sync iteration paths in Azure DevOps with sprints in Jira?

Yes. Azure DevOps iteration paths map to Jira sprints, keeping sprint-level planning aligned across both tools.

Can I connect multiple Jira projects to one Azure DevOps project?

Yes. Each connection is a separate flow, so you can link several Jira projects to a single Azure DevOps project or vice versa.

Does the sync work with both Jira Cloud and Jira Data Center?

Yes. Unito supports Jira Cloud, Jira Data Center, and Jira Server alongside Azure DevOps Services and Azure DevOps Server.
