    If you don't see the Visualforce page you're looking for, review the steps in "Step 1: Creating a Visualforce Page".

...

  1. Click and drag Section to a preferred section in the layout. Give this section a name, in this case, we've named it "Jira Issues (NextGen)" and configured it as a one-column layout.
    Now click and drag Jira Issues(NextGen) onto the newly-created "Jira Issues (NextGen)" section. 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).
