Add a Visualforce page to an Object Layout
Log in to your Salesforce instance and click Setup.
Now let's customize your object Page Layout.
Under the sidebar, go to Build > Customize > (object name) > Page Layout.Choose the layout you want to edit in the list, then click Edit.
Here's an example for Case:Under the Layout panel, scroll until you find Visualforce Pages.
If you don't see the Visualforce page you're looking for, review the steps in Create a Visualforce Page.Now click and drag Section to a preferred section in the layout. Give this section a name, in this case, we've named it 'Jira Section' and configured it as a two-column layout.
Now click and drag Jira Issues and Jira Comments onto the newly-created 'Jira Section' and place them side by side. You may also want to adjust the properties so that you get a panel with a size you'll be more comfortable working in (a minimum height of 500px is recommended).Click Save.
Now when you load an object's page, you are able to see Jira issues associated with the object, along with their comments.
Upon creating a new Jira issue or associating to an existing one, the Jira Comments page will refresh automatically.
