Setting up Jira Software Cloud API

  1. In Jira Software Cloud API, create the credential this connection needs — the values listed in the table above. These are issued from your own Jira Software Cloud API account, usually under its developer, API or integrations settings.
  2. In BusyBot, open Credentials → Add credential and choose Jira Software Cloud API.
  3. Paste each value into the matching field and save.
  4. Add the Jira Trigger node to a workflow, select this credential, and run a simple operation to confirm it authenticates.

Security

  • Secret values are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM and are never shown again after saving.
  • Grant the minimum scopes or permissions the operations you actually use require.
  • Rotate the credential periodically, and immediately if it may have been exposed.
  • Credentials are scoped to your account — a workflow cannot use another account's.
