Get Issue

UiPath.Jira.Activities.GetIssue

  1. Complete the Setup steps.
  2. Add the Jira Scope activity to your project.
  3. Add the Get Issue activity inside the Jira Scope activity.
  4. Create and enter a String and an Issue Key variable for the Input properties.
  5. Create and enter an Issue and an Issue variable for the Output properties.
