Get started for agents

Troopr HelpDesk connects Jira service desk to Slack so you can manage all your Jira requests directly in Slack. 

Before getting started ensure that your workspace administrator has configured Jira for the team. If Jira is not configured yet in your Troopr workspace, you can request the Jira administrator to complete that step first by logging into Troopr and following instructions to connect Jira Cloud or Server/DC.

You can get started by first inviting Troopr to a Slack channel. If you already invited Troopr to your channel during the onboarding process, you can skip this step.

Invite Troopr to Channel

Convert any Slack channel into a Troopr Helpdesk channel using the command /invite @Troopr Assistant. Read more here

Locate Troopr Assistant app

If you can’t find Troopr under the App’s section on your Slack workspace, click on the Add App in the Slack sidebar and search for Troopr Assistant. Select Troopr so that it will start showing up under the Apps in Slack. We recommend that you star the Troopr Assistant app for easier accessiblity later.
