Create a Jira connection

Create a Jira connection in Catalog Explorer to store authentication credentials for Lakeflow Connect ingestion. Any user with the USE CONNECTION privilege on the connection can then create Jira ingestion pipelines without needing direct access to the credentials.

Alternatively, admin users can create a connection and a pipeline at the same time in the data ingestion UI. See Create an ingestion pipeline.

For privilege requirements, see Connect to managed ingestion sources.

Prerequisites

Complete the source setup. Use the authentication details you obtain to create the connection.

Create a connection

  1. In the Databricks workspace, click Data icon. Catalog > Create > Create a connection.
  2. On the Connection basics page of the Set up connection wizard, specify a unique Connection name.
  3. In the Connection type drop-down menu, select Jira.
  4. (Optional) Add a comment.
  5. Click Next.
  6. On the Authentication page, enter the following:
    • Host: The domain for the Jira data source, including http/https.
    • (Optional) Port: The port for an on-premises Jira instance. The default is 443.
    • Client secret: The client secret from the source setup.
    • Client ID: The client ID from the source setup.
    • (Optional) On premise: Select if the Jira instance is on-premises.
    • (Optional) Jira deployment path: The on-premises deployment path (for example, if the URL is http://<domain>:<port>/<path>, the path is <path>).
  7. Click Sign in with Jira and authorize the Databricks application.
