Installing SIL Groovy Connector

SIL Groovy Connector is a free app that comes together with any of our paid Power Portfolio apps like Power Scripts™ for Jira, Power Actions™ for Jira, Power Database Fields PRO™, Power Custom Fields™, and so on. Once you have any of these plugins installed, SIL Groovy Connector is a great addition to the family to help you with convenient and pain free work with the Groovy plugin.

Before you install SIL Groovy Connector, ensure that you have either of the power apps installed.
