Get Started

Troopr projects connect Jira software projects to Slack so you can manage all your Jira projects 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.

Once your Slack workspace is connected to your Jira account by your administrator, you can get started by verifying your Jira account.

1. Locate the Troopr Assistant app (one time)

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.
