Enter your Salesforce.com URL in this format:
Code Block language xml https://<domain>.salesforce.com

Then, from the Application Type pull-down menu, choose Salesforce.com.
You do not need to fill in the other fields.

The default Application Links interface has been replicated as part of the connector as the default interface is not accessible to all JIRA administrators. Application Links can still be added through the default interface but this documentation will focus on the connector interface. For details on adding application links through the default interface see: Linking to Another Application |

Alternatively, you may also go to the Connection Configuration Interface and edit an existing connection. |

An Alternative Method to Adding an Application Link
The method shown above is the default method of adding an application link and uses the default Atlassian interface. There is also an alternative method of adding an application link and can be performed after a connection has already been added, or while it is being added.
- Go to the Cog Icon
- Under Cloud Connectors, click on Connections.
- You will now be at the Manage Application Links screen:
.png?version=1&modificationDate=1427144381960&cacheVersion=1&api=v2&width=800)
- You can now add a new application link in the fields on the bottom of the screen.
Enter a Name for your application link. For this example, we will enter "SF AppLink2".
Then enter your Salesforce.com URL as both the RPC URL and Display URL.
The Salesforce.com URL is in this format:Code Block language xml https://<domain>.salesforce.com
For this example, we will be using the domain "
na1". Your Salesforce.com instance may use a different domain.
The URL will thus appear like this: https://na1.salesforce.com.png?version=1&modificationDate=1427144383492&cacheVersion=1&api=v2)
When you're done, click Add.
