Create Comment on Request

Create Incident

Creates a new incident request in a Jira Service Desk. Auto-discovers the best-matching request type (prefers types named 'incident' or 'problem') and, if serviceDeskId is omitted, auto-discovers it from the user's existing requests. Use **List Sites** first to obtain the required cloudId. serviceDeskId is optional — if not provided, the tool calls **List My Requests** to discover it automatically. Returns the new request including its issueKey and issueId. See the documentation

Create Request

Creates a new customer request. See the documentation

Get Current User

Returns the authenticated user's account_id, display_name, and email from Atlassian. Use this to identify who is logged in, or to filter requests by the current user's account_id. No cloudId required — this uses the Atlassian Identity API directly. See the documentation

Get Request

Fetches the full details of a Jira Service Desk request including its field values and complete comment thread in a single response. Use this to summarize a ticket without needing follow-up calls. Use **List Sites** first to obtain the required cloudId. Use **List My Requests** to find the issueKey of a request (e.g. IT-42). See the documentation

See the documentation

List Request Transitions

Lists the available workflow transitions for a Jira Service Desk request — returns each transition's id and name. **Call this before Transition Request** to obtain valid transitionId values.

Transition Request

Transitions a Jira Service Desk request to a new workflow status. Use **List Request Transitions** first to get valid transitionId values for the request. Use **List Sites** to obtain the required cloudId. Use **List My Requests** or **Get Request** to find the issueKey (e.g. IT-42). Optionally include a comment to explain the transition. See the documentation

Update Issue Fields

Updates fields on an existing Jira Service Desk request via the Jira platform API. Use this to change the summary, priority, description, or other fields after a request has been created. Use **List Sites** first to obtain the required cloudId. Use **List My Requests** or **Get Request** to find the issueKey (e.g. IT-42). fields is a JSON object of field name-value pairs.
