This page will guide you through the steps for adding a new application link.

The application link authorizes your JIRA instance with your Salesforce.com account. Without the application link, you will not be able to make a connection to Salesforce.com.

    https://<domain>.salesforce.com

    If your Salesforce.com connection won't authenticate, refer to the KB article:

  9. If the configuration is successful, you should be able to see that the status is now Configured.

The default Application Links interface has been replicated as part of the connector as the default interface was not accessible to all JIRA administrators.

Application Links can still be added through the default interface but this documentation will focus on the connector interface.

For details on adding application links through the default interface see: Linking to Another Application

Alternatively, you may also go to the Connection Configuration Interface and edit an existing connection.

Click on Manage Application Links link to display the Application Links interface.
