Now that we have the installation on the Jira side taken care of, let's switch over to Salesforce and install the Salesforce Package. Installing the Salesforce Package on your Salesforce will allow the Connector on your Jira instance to interface with Salesforce properly.

If you have already installed the Salesforce Package, you can instead read up on setting up a connection to Salesforce.
