How to connect Harvest and Jira
Create a New Scenario to Connect Harvest and Jira
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Harvest, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Harvest or Jira will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Harvest or Jira, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
Add the Harvest Node
Select the Harvest node from the app selection panel on the right.

Authenticate Jira
Now, click the Jira node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Jira settings. Authentication allows you to use Jira through Latenode.
Configure the Harvest and Jira Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Harvest and Jira Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Harvest, Jira, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Harvest and Jira integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Harvest and Jira (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Harvest and Jira
Harvest + Jira + Slack: When a project exceeds its allocated time budget in Harvest, a bug report is automatically created in Jira. A notification is then sent via Slack to the project manager, alerting them to the budget overrun and the new bug report.
Jira + Harvest + Google Calendar: When a Jira issue is resolved, the time spent on it is logged in Harvest. Following this, an entry is created in Google Calendar to schedule a review of the completed issue and the logged time.
