Automatically create issues from vulnerability reports
You can use Jira automations to create new issues whenever a vulnerability is reported. Follow these steps:
- Go to project settings, and enter the automation menu.
- Create rule
- Add an Incoming webhook trigger and select the “No issues from the webhook” option.
Copy the URL and head over to the Scope menu of your group on the platform. Scroll to the “Hooks” section and add a hook using the URL copied previously.
- Add an action to create a new issue filling the fields as needed.
You can use the following variables provided by the webhook:
finding_id
finding_title
group_name
severity_score
vulnerability_id
vulnerability_specific
vulnerability_where
Optionally you can add a condition in the automation, for instance, you can only create new issues for critical vulnerabilities.
