Using @Jira in Microsoft Team: create, update and assign work from chat | Atlassian

Aug 26, 2026

Yes, Jira works inside Microsoft Teams. The Jira Cloud for Microsoft Teams app brings project management into your conversations, and it just got smarter.

Over a million users already rely on the Jira for Microsoft Teams integration for notifications, work item previews, and quick actions. Now Jira understands natural language, so you can create, update, and assign work without ever leaving your Teams chat.

Can you create a Jira work item from a Teams message? Yes. @ mention Jira and describe what you need. When a bug comes up, a decision gets made, or a feature request lands in chat, Jira reads the thread, pulls in the context, and creates a ready-to-go work item using Rovo. No copy-pasting. No tab-switching.

From that same conversation, assign work to a teammate or a coding agent. The agent picks it up with full context, starts investigating, and drives the work toward resolution, with you in control to review and confirm.

Decisions happen in conversations. Now the work moves with them.
