Troopr supports 2 way realtime update of Jira ticket or issue in Slack channels. This feature works with both Jira Software issues or Jira Service Desk tickets. For the purposes of this document we will refer to a Jira Service Desk ticket.
To enable this feature, go to Troopr web app at https://app.troopr.io. Navigate to "Jira Bot" in the left side menu bar. Navigate to "Channel Preferences" tab and find your channel configuration (or create a new configuration). Then in the channel page, enable "Thread Sync by default" (if it is not enabled already).
Now to see the 2way sync in action, you can trigger active sync by
Taking "Task It" message action on any Slack message in the channel
Typing a ticket key in the channel
One of the above actions will create a ticket card with a Slack thread that actively updates messages as comments to the Jira ticket and vice versa.
Active Slack thread sync features
Recent comments if any in the ticket are updated in the thread
New messages in the thread are added to the Jira ticket as comments
New comments in the Jira ticket added from anywhere are updated in the thread in realtime
