The Issue Tracking Systems page, which can be accessed through the Administration - Integrations - Issue Tracking Systems menu, allows management of integrations into third-party issue tracking systems. FlexDeploy currently provides out of box integration with Atlassian Jira. You can define custom implementation using either Java class or Groovy script. FlexDeploy reads ticket(s) from SCM commit message comments during build execution. As an example, if you use SVN, when committing a change back to the repository, simply put the issue name in the commit comment(case sensitive). If using Git as your SCM, make sure that the Git executable is installed on FlexDeploy server and is accessible on the PATH. The Git executable version must be 1.7.9 or higher.
Here is the out of box issue tracking systems. To configure, select Jira and click the Edit button. Issue Tracking System screen allows you to view the details on our of box Jira. FlexDeploy comes up with Java Implementation to integrate with Jira, you are not allowed to change implementation class and change or add new properties. You can create additional Issue Tracking System as necessary using the Create button.
