Multiple github repositories smart commits to a single Jira project

I'm having issues with using commits, to multiple GitHub repositories, to update a single Jira project.

This is my first attempt. at getting this setup to work. I have searched the Jira documentation but are running into problems with Atlassian moving the documentation around lately.

  1. I tried deleting the connector and redo everything - same result.
  2. I tried creating a new secret from GitHub and redoing the integration.
  3. I checked the email are the same in both Jira and GitHub (required by Jira).

I have something like the following setup

GitHub

  • my-github/project-a
  • my-github/project-b

Jira

  • Single project with 4 letter key (eg. PROJ).
  • This gives Issues in the following format; PROJ-1, PROJ-2, PROJ-475, etc.

Problem

When using the Jira Issue keys in the commit message for my-github/project-a it works fine. Development information in Jira is updated instantly.

When using the Jira Issue keys in the commit message for my-github/project-b nothing happens in Jira. I can see the web hooks are sent from GitHub and are responded with a 200 OK and contains the commit messages with the Jira Issue keys. Jira DVCS reports the repository is synced fine.

Have anyone tried a similar setup and have the magic solution? Or know of any requirements I have overlooked.

Solution

  • Try to configured URL as comma separated in Jira >> Project >> Details.

    E.g.

    my-github/project-a,my-github/project-b
