monday.com Jira integration: two-way sync without scripts
Without integration, teams re-key every monday.com item into Jira and chase each other for status.
Requests and tickets are raised on monday.com boards while engineering tracks the work in Jira. The two drift apart: status and updates live in one tool and never reach the other, so teams re-key items by hand and requesters keep asking where things stand.
ZigiOps links each monday.com item to its Jira issue and keeps them synchronized in real time. Status, assignee, updates and files propagate both ways automatically — no scripts, no manual updates.
What manual work disappears
- Re-keying each monday.com item as a Jira issue
- Chasing engineering for status
- Copying updates and files between the two tools
- Translating statuses and assignees by hand
- Updating the item when engineering closes the issue

How the monday.com ↔ Jira mapping works inside ZigiOps
A look at the visual field-mapping canvas ZigiOps engineers use to configure this pair — point, click, connect. No scripts, no pipelines.
Per field, not per record — if only the priority changed on one side, only that field is resolved, not the whole ticket.
Lock specific fields (e.g. Priority) to always defer to one system, regardless of which side changed last.
Route simultaneous conflicting edits to a review queue instead of silently picking a winner, when that's the safer default.
Every field that matters, mapped both ways
Map monday.com entities to Jira entities down to the individual field, without writing a script.
More control over how monday.com ↔ Jira syncs
Updates flow the moment they happen — no polling delays, no scheduled batch jobs.
Scope every sync with filters on board, group, status, assignee or any column you choose.
Built-in logic decides which update wins and logs every decision for full traceability.
Sync resumes on its own after downtime or network interruptions — nothing to restart by hand.
Validate field mappings and rules against real data before the integration goes live.
See sync status and catch failures early, without digging through logs.
A request on a board, handled by engineering
A team raises a request on monday.com while engineering works the fix in Jira. ZigiOps keeps both records on one shared thread.
A team adds an item to a board with its status, owner and details.
A matching Jira issue appears automatically, mapped field for field and linked to the item.
Status changes, comments and attachments sync back to the item in real time.
When engineering resolves the issue, the item is updated automatically with the full history.
monday.com ↔ Jira FAQ
Is the monday.com–Jira sync two-way?
Yes. Items and issues stay aligned in both directions in real time, with conflict-resolution logic keeping both systems authoritative so neither overwrites the other.
What fields map between monday.com and Jira?
Item ↔ issue, status ↔ status, person ↔ assignee, updates ↔ comments, and files ↔ attachments, in both directions. Mappings are configurable in the visual editor.
Do I need to write scripts or build automations?
No. The integration is configured visually with no code, and it works with your existing boards and Jira projects.
Can I connect more than one monday.com board or Jira project?
Yes. You can run several workflows, each scoped to its own board, group or Jira project.
What happens if an item and an issue are updated at the same time?
ZigiOps applies the conflict-resolution rules you configure and logs the decision, so you can see which update won and why.
Can I limit the sync to specific items or issues?
Yes. Conditional triggers and filters let you sync only the items that match the conditions you define, such as a status, assignee or board.
Does ZigiOps store my data?
No. ZigiOps is stateless and moves data directly between monday.com and Jira without storing a copy. It can run on-premises or in the cloud and is ISO 27001 certified.
