Introduction to the Integration Module for Atlassian Jira

The Kelverion Integration Module for Atlassian Jira provides a powerful integration capability for writing Azure Automation and Service Management Automation runbooks as well as being usable in PowerShell scripts. The Integration Module supports the Atlassian Jira Software and Atlassian Jira Service Desk.
