Automatic Status Updating

Note: This section is only applicable to Software Risk Manager users who are configuring a Jira integration.

Software Risk Manager can be configured to automatically update Jira issue statuses in response to status changes within Software Risk Manager. This is configurable on the "Status Mapping" tab.

Click the Projects icon in the navigation bar to open the Projects page, then select Issue Tracker Config from the project's dropdown configuration options.

When automatic status updating is enabled, a list of Software Risk Manager triage statuses will be shown, along with a dropdown list to pick the associated Jira status. These mappings are optional: if one is not selected, then no action will be taken on findings with that status.

After configuring status mappings, any time the status of a finding on the issue's associated branch is updated, the associated Jira issue will be updated according to the mapping (if applicable). If a transition is not available, then no action will be taken. If a transition requires some input for a field, Software Risk Manager will attempt to use any defined mappings in the "SRM -> Jira" tab that are marked "Keep synced" to satisfy those requirements. If multiple findings are associated with the same Jira issue, the Jira status will only be updated if all findings map to the same status.
