This page explains how to associate a Salesforce Object (such as an Account, a Case, a Contact, etc.) with a Jira Issue, from within Salesforce.

By doing so, you can link a Jira issue with the current Object, and configure its sync behavior.

For example, when Salesforce agents receive a Case caused by a known bug, they can associate the Case with an existing Jira issue containing the bug report. This way, both the team working in Jira and the team working in Salesforce can see all related Cases and Jira issues, and push or pull data between the systems.
