Connect GitHub to Jira
Keep pull requests, branches, and Jira issues in lockstep without babysitting webhooks or paying per task.

Engineering teams live in GitHub while delivery and product live in Jira, and the gap between them is where status goes stale. Spojit links the two so a merged PR moves the right issue, and Miraxa can read messy commit text to find the issue it belongs to.

Built for how GitHub and Jira really work
Smart issue matching
Miraxa parses branch names, PR titles, and commit messages to find the right Jira key even when the convention is inconsistent.
Two-way status sync
Move issues forward as code progresses, and trigger GitHub actions when a Jira ticket is picked up.
Deterministic transitions
Status changes that need no judgment run in Direct Mode, so they cost no AI credits.
Why teams build this on Spojit
GitHub and Jira have an official integration through GitHub for Jira and Atlassian's Open DevOps, and it covers basic linking and PR status well. Teams choose Spojit when they need custom transition logic, AI to resolve inconsistent issue references, or workflows that branch beyond the fixed native mapping, all billed by execution time rather than per seat.
With Spojit
- Map your exact branch and PR naming conventions instead of accepting a rigid built-in mapping.
- Run AI only on the ambiguous matching step; deterministic transitions stay free of AI credits.
- Durable execution survives GitHub webhook retries and Jira rate limits without dropping events.
GitHub + Jira, answered
Does this replace the official GitHub for Jira app?
It can complement or replace it. Use Spojit when you need custom logic, AI matching, or actions the native app does not support.
Can it handle inconsistent branch naming?
Yes. Miraxa reads branch names, PR titles, and commits to infer the correct Jira issue even when conventions vary.
Do simple status updates cost AI credits?
No. Deterministic transitions run in Direct Mode and consume no AI credits.
What is possible depends on your plan and authorized API access. Some GitHub and Jira endpoints and capabilities are gated by the vendor (for example, parts of an API may require a higher tier, and write access can require a custom or add-on connection on an eligible plan), so not every workflow is available on every account from day one. You can request a feature or integration any time, and we will get in touch to figure out how to make it work.
