Chapter 34. Jira Add Comment Sink

Add a new comment to an existing issue in Jira.

The Kamelet expects the following headers to be set:

  • issueKey / ce-issueKey: as the issue code.

The comment is set in the body of the message.

To authenticate, a username/password or personal token must be defined. We recommend to use personal token as it is a safer way to get access to Jira.
