Step 1: Enable Workflow Custom Action setting

  • Navigate to the Settings page.

  • Toggle Enable Workflows Custom Action. This setting controls whether the workflow custom action is allowed to run. When disabled, the action may still be visible, but it will not execute.

Step 2: Create workflow

  • In Zoho Desk, navigate to the Workflows page.

  • Create a new workflow or edit an existing one.

  • Set up the workflow conditions based on your business needs.

  • Configure the appropriate trigger for when the workflow should run.

Step 3: Add the Create Jira Issue Action

  • In the workflow actions, select Create Jira Issue.

  • Enter the following required values:

    • Jira Space ID

    • Jira Issue Type ID

  • Important Notes

    • The Jira Space ID and Jira Issue Type ID must match your configured object mappings.

    • The Jira issue will be created based on your configured field mappings.

    • Make sure your object mappings and field mappings are set up correctly before enabling the workflow.

  • Click Save once you are done

After completing the steps above, the workflow will automatically create Jira issues when the configured conditions are met.
