How teams connect Azure DevOps and Jira
Pick the setup closest to yours. Each one works with custom work item types in Azure DevOps and Jira.
-
Bugs
Items sync both ways between Azure DevOps and Jira
Bugs
Send bugs between engineering teams
When a bug is found in Azure DevOps, create a matching bug in Jira and keep them in sync.
Status, priority and comments sync both ways, so the team that filed the bug in Azure DevOps sees it move to Done as the Jira team ships the fix.
-
Epics
Items sync both ways between Azure DevOps and Jira
Epics
Mirror epics and stories across both backlogs
When an epic is found in Jira, create a matching epic in Azure DevOps and keep them in sync.
Status, sprint and the stories and sub-tasks under each epic stay in sync, so teams in Azure DevOps and Jira plan from the same epic structure.
-
Tasks
Items sync both ways between Azure DevOps and Jira
Tasks
Keep a shared backlog across two dev tools
When a task is found in either tool, create a matching task in the other and keep them in sync.
Assignee, sprint and comments sync both ways, so the Azure DevOps and Jira teams plan each sprint from one backlog and see who owns every task.

Frequently asked questions about Azure DevOps and Jira
With Unito it’s a no-code setup: connect both tools, choose a Jira project and an Azure DevOps project, then map fields and pick the sync direction. For a full walkthrough, see our Azure DevOps + Jira integration guide.
Yes. Two-way sync keeps both tools current so teams continue working in their preferred platform. No migration required.
Yes. Unito works with Jira Cloud and with self-hosted Jira Data Center or Server, reachable over HTTPS. Jira Data Center is a premium integration on Enterprise plans; Basic and Pro customers contact Unito to use it.
Truly bidirectional. Title, description, state and assignee in Azure DevOps, and summary, status, assignee and priority in Jira, sync two-way. Which tool creates items and which way each field updates are set separately. For most connectors, new comments sync but edits don’t.
Yes. Custom fields map by type, such as text to text, number to number and date to date, and most types can fall back to a text field. Each mapping is set one-way or two-way on its own; a field with no equivalent on the other side stays one-way.
Yes to filtering: rules limit the sync to items matching specific tags, assignees or statuses, and every condition on a rule must be met. A flow syncs one Jira project by default; syncing several Jira projects in one flow needs Unito sales to enable it.
No developer needed: setup is point-and-click. Connecting Jira requires admin permissions on the Jira account; after that, project-level admin rights are enough to build flows.
