#### How do I integrate with Jira?

###### Connecting a Jira Instance is the first step to take when setting up DefectDojo’s Jira integration.

###### Required information from Jira

###### You will need:

- ###### a Jira URL

- ###### an account with permissions to create and update issues in your Jira instance. This can be:

- ###### A standard **username / password** combination

- ###### A **username / API Key** combination **(Jira Cloud)**

- ###### A **Personal Access Token (aka PAT, used in Jira Data Center and Jira Server only)**

###### Optionally, you can map:

- ###### Jira Transitions to trigger Re-Opening and Closing Findings

- ###### Jira Resolutions which can apply Risk Acceptance and False Positive statuses to Findings (optional)

###### Multiple Jira Projects can be handled by a single Jira Instance connection, as long as the Jira account / token used by DefectDojo has permission to create Issues in the associated Jira Project. To get started, visit the [Dojo documentation site](https://docs.defectdojo.com/en/share_your_findings/jira_integration/connect_to_jira/)

#### How do I implement SSO?

###### Users can connect to DefectDojo with a Username and Password, but if you prefer, you can allow users to authenticate using a Single Sign-On or SSO method. You can set up DefectDojo to work with your own SAML Identity Provider, but we also support many OAuth methods for authentication:

- ###### **[Auth0](https://docs.defectdojo.com/en/customize_dojo/user_management/configure_sso/\#auth0-setup)**

- ###### **[Azure Active Directory (Azure AD)](https://docs.defectdojo.com/en/customize_dojo/user_management/configure_sso/\#azure-active-directory-setup)**

- ###### **[GitHub Enterprise](https://docs.defectdojo.com/en/customize_dojo/user_management/configure_sso/\#github-enterprise)**

- ###### **[GitLab](https://docs.defectdojo.com/en/customize_dojo/user_management/configure_sso/\#gitlab)**

- ###### **[Google](https://docs.defectdojo.com/en/customize_dojo/user_management/configure_sso/\#google-auth)**

- ###### **[KeyCloak](https://docs.defectdojo.com/en/customize_dojo/user_management/configure_sso/\#keycloak)**

- ###### **[Okta](https://docs.defectdojo.com/en/customize_dojo/user_management/configure_sso/\#okta)**

###### To learn more, visit the [Docs](https://docs.defectdojo.com/en/api/api-v2-docs/).

#### How do I use the API?

###### DefectDojo's API is created using [Django Rest Framework](http://www.django-rest-framework.org/). The documentation of each endpoint is available within each DefectDojo installation at [`/api/v2/oa3/swagger-ui`](https://demo.defectdojo.org/api/v2/oa3/swagger-ui/) and can be accessed by choosing the API v2 Docs link on the user drop down menu in the header.
