Jira

Definition

Jira is Atlassian's issue tracker and agile-planning tool. Its REST API and webhook system make it a frequent automation target: sync issues to Slack, mirror them in Notion, or trigger CI runs from status changes. Jira Service Management adds an ITSM layer on top for support and operations teams.
