17. Now, let's change the owner of the case to ensure the add-on can synchronize with the Reporter field.
    Go to Salesforce and change the Case Owner.
18. Go back to Jira and Pull the updated changes made in Salesforce.
    You should now be able to see the new changes.
    The user must be manually mapped as well.
