Jira Integration Update: Nested Comments and OAuth Authentication

We’ve rolled out two important improvements to the Userback ↔ Jira integration, making collaboration smoother and connections more secure.

Key Features

Nested Jira comment sync: Jira comments now sync as nested (threaded) replies between Jira and Userback. This means conversations stay structured and easier to follow, no more flat comment streams or lost context.

OAuth-based Jira connection: New Jira connections now use OAuth instead of API tokens, providing a more secure and reliable way to connect Userback with Jira.

How It Works

Nested comments

  • Replies in Jira sync back to Userback as threaded comments
  • Replies in Userback sync to Jira the same way
  • Conversations stay organized, with full context preserved on both sides

OAuth connection

  • When setting up a new Jira integration, you’ll be guided through an OAuth flow
  • No API tokens required
  • Existing Jira connections continue to work as-is

These updates make collaboration clearer, reduce back-and-forth between teams, and provide a more secure, easier way to connect Userback with Jira.
