IntelliPaaS Integration Pack for PagerDuty and Jira streamlines your incident management workflow by creating a seamless bridge between your on-call alerting platform and your engineering issue tracker. When a new incident is triggered in PagerDuty, IntelliPaaS automatically creates a corresponding Jira issue, pre-populated with the incident's name, severity, and a direct link back to PagerDuty. This ensures engineering teams can track, investigate, and resolve incidents within their existing Jira workflow.

The friction that typically exists between PagerDuty and Jira is a hidden tax on your engineering team's time. On-call engineers receive an alert, begin investigating, and then have to manually create a Jira ticket, copy across the incident details, set the priority, and notify the relevant team—all while the incident is still active. This context-switching slows response times and introduces inconsistency in how incidents are documented. IntelliPaaS eliminates these manual steps entirely, so engineers can move directly from receiving the alert to investigating the root cause without any administrative overhead.

Over time, the integration delivers compounding operational benefits through better data. Every PagerDuty incident that automatically creates a Jira issue contributes to a structured historical record of incidents, their severity, resolution time, and the teams involved. Engineering leaders can analyse this data to identify recurring failure patterns, measure mean time to resolution trends, and make the case for infrastructure investments that prevent future incidents. The bidirectional visibility—where support teams see Jira status and engineering teams see PagerDuty severity—also ensures no stakeholder is left out of the loop during a live incident.

How it works

Watch the agent run, end to end

intellipaas · agent run
TRIGGER A new incident is triggered in PagerDuty, either by a monitoring alert or manually and IntelliPaaS detects the event in real time via the PagerDuty webhook integration.
01
IntelliPaaS extracts the incident details, including the title, severity level, affected service and PagerDuty incident URL and maps them to the appropriate Jira issue fields and priority settings.
02
A new Jira issue is automatically created in the designated project, pre-populated with all the extracted incident data and assigned to the relevant engineering team or on-call squad based on configurable routing rules.
03
The Jira issue ID and URL are sent back to PagerDuty as an incident note, creating a two-way reference so both platforms stay linked throughout the investigation and resolution process.

FAQ

Questions teams ask

How quickly can we get the PagerDuty to Jira Incidents Integration Pack running?

Most teams are live the same day. Connect your PagerDuty and Jira accounts, confirm the field mapping and the agent starts running against your own data. There is no infrastructure to provision and nothing to deploy.

Do we need to write any code?

No. The Integration Pack ships with the trigger, the agent logic and the actions already configured. Everything is adjusted from the IntelliPaaS dashboard, so your operations team can own it without waiting on engineering.

How often does data sync between PagerDuty and Jira?

The agent runs on every qualifying event in PagerDuty, so records reach Jira within moments rather than waiting for an overnight batch. You can also put the Integration Pack on a schedule or trigger a run by hand when that suits your process better.

What happens if a record fails to sync?

Failed runs are retried automatically, and anything still unresolved is held in a review queue with the full error trace attached, so nothing is dropped silently. Your team is alerted and can replay the record once the cause is cleared.

Can we customise the field mapping?

Yes. Every field mapped between PagerDuty and Jira is editable, and you can layer on your own conditions, filters and transformations without leaving the Integration Pack.
