Create Vera webhooks

This is a prerequisite to integrate Vera workflow states into Jira workflows. You only need to do this once per Jira instance.

Note: As of 2023.3, the machine name below is the URL to the Vera API Jira Route Actions microservice. For Jira servers already connected to Vera, the simplest way to upgrade is to re-route the existing URL to the new microservice. Othewise, each Jira server and webhook will need to be updated manually to the new URL.

To create Vera webhooks in Jira administration, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Jira Administration Panel > System > WebHooks.

2. Select the Create a WebHook button.

3. Create the following webhooks:

   • Start Vera Approval Route and Cancel Vera Approval Route are required webhooks.

   • Revise Vera Record is an optional webhook available in Vera 1.6+.

   Name	Status	URL
   Start Vera Approval Route	Enabled	(https://[machine-name]:[port]/callbacks/jira/start_route)
   Cancel Vera Approval Route	Enabled	(https://[machine-name]:[port]/callbacks/jira/cancel_route)
   Revise Vera Record	Enabled	(https://[machine-name]:[port]/callbacks/jira/revise_record)
