Automate Jira

Turn the repetitive Jira work you do by hand (open a board, read issues by filter) into a workflow Writ runs for you, on your own account, on a schedule or on demand.

Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.

why

Stop doing Jira by hand

The Jira tasks you repeat (open a board, read issues by filter, update a field) are exactly the kind of work a computer should do. But Jira only exposes part of it through an API, and the flow runs behind a login and dynamic pages. Jira has a REST API, but custom boards, dashboards, and some admin screens are only reachable through the Atlassian browser UI.

Writ closes that gap. Record the Jira task once (or describe it to an AI session) and Writ runs it for you in a real browser, on your own account. Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.

Jira tasks Writ can run for you

Each of these is a real Jira action, captured into a workflow and run on your own account.

{ }open a board
{ }read issues by filter
{ }update a field
{ }export a report

Workflows extract structured fields such as issue, status, assignee, sprint along the way: typed data you can route anywhere.

Three ways to build your Jira automation

Pick whichever fits the task. All three produce the same workflow Writ can run for you.

Record itDo the Jira task once in a real browser (open a board, then read issues by filter) and the recorder captures every step into a reusable workflow.
Describe it to AITell an AI session your goal on Jira in plain language; it drives the live page and builds the workflow for you, no recording needed.
Discover itLet API discovery watch Jira's own network calls as you browse, then turn the underlying requests into a fast, headless workflow.

Built on the same engine as the recorder and workflows, with 30+ step types.

Login, 2FA, and dynamic pages on Jira

The reason Jira is tedious to automate is the same reason most tools can't. Writ handles it.

Writ signs into your own Jira site through a Persona, including SSO and 2FA, and runs inside that authenticated session.

Run the Jira automation on your terms

On a schedule, on demand, or the instant something changes. You choose the trigger.

On a scheduleRun the Jira task every hour, every morning, or any cadence. No one has to remember to do it.
On demandTrigger a single run from the dashboard, a webhook, your code, or an AI agent, whenever you need it.
On a changeWatch Jira for issue status change or new issue in a filter and fire the automation the instant it happens.
  1. 1
    Build the Jira workflow once

    Record the task, describe it to AI, or discover it from the network. Writ captures each step, including login and 2FA, into a workflow you can edit.

  2. 2
    Run it on your terms

    Run it on demand, on a schedule, or fire it from a Monitor when Jira changes. It runs on your own Jira account, in a real browser.

  3. 3
    Call it from anything

    The same workflow is a REST endpoint at /v1/jira/run and an MCP tool, so your code, a no-code tool, or an AI agent can trigger the Jira automation too.

Trigger the Jira automation on a change

Monitor Jira for issue status change, new issue in a filter, dashboard value change and run your workflow the moment it happens.

Monitors check as fast as every 10s (10s on Enterprise). A detected change becomes a trigger that runs your Jira automation in seconds. Monitor Jira ▸

Local / BYO agent

No compute charge. The agent runs on your hardware, so it can reach Jira even from an intranet or VPN-only network, and your AI keys never leave your machine.

Metered by running time at $0.12 per browser-hour, drawn from your plan’s included usage. No infrastructure to manage.

The same Jira automation is an API and an MCP tool

Automating Jira for yourself and calling it from software are the same workflow. Once you have it, publish it as a REST endpoint at/v1/jira/run and a matching MCP tool, so your code or an AI agent can trigger the Jira task too.

Automating Jira: questions

How do I automate Jira?
Record the Jira task once in the recorder (open a board, read issues by filter, update a field) or describe your goal to an AI session. Writ turns it into a workflow it can run for you on a schedule or on demand, on your own Jira account. It usually takes minutes, not a backend project.
Is it allowed to automate Jira this way?
Use Writ on your own Jira site. Authorized automation of your own workspace. Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.
Does Jira automation work behind login and 2FA?
Writ signs into your own Jira site through a Persona, including SSO and 2FA, and runs inside that authenticated session. Writ handles TOTP and mailbox-OTP two-factor through Personas, so the automation runs inside your own authenticated Jira session.
Can I run the Jira automation without writing code?
Yes. Recording and AI sessions need no code at all. If you do want to trigger it from software, the same workflow is a REST endpoint and an MCP tool, but that is optional.
Where does it run, and what does it cost?
Run it on your own machine with a local or BYO agent for no compute charge, useful when Jira is only reachable from your network or VPN. Or run it on metered cloud at $0.12 per browser-hour, drawn from your plan’s included usage. Start free.
