Connect Jira to Slack with an AI agent
An agent watches issues and sprints in Jira, decides what matters, and posts a message or thread in Slack. Velaris connects Jira and Slack through its capability mesh, so you describe the outcome instead of drawing a trigger-and-action flowchart — and anything outbound or irreversible waits for your approval.
Jira is on the roadmap — join the list to get it first.
What you can automate
- Velaris can read and search issues in Jira, judge what's worth acting on, and posts a message or thread in Slack — so the team sees it where they already work, without another tab.
- When issues in Jira need something done in Slack, the agent does it and stops for your approval on anything outbound or irreversible.
- On a schedule or on a trigger, it can summarize channels and threads in Slack from what it found in Jira — every write logged, scoped and reversible.
How it works
- 1
Connect Jira and Slack
Authorize both tools with scoped access you control.
- 2
Say what you want
Describe the outcome in a sentence — no trigger/action graph to draw.
- 3
Set the approval tier
Reads run automatically; outbound or irreversible steps wait for your tap.
Common questions
Can Velaris connect Jira to Slack without code?
Yes. Connect both tools, then describe the outcome in plain language — the agent selects the right actions from the capability mesh itself. There's no flowchart to build.
How is this different from a Jira-to-Slack Zap or automation?
A rule fires the same way every time. An agent reads the Jira context, decides whether it matters, and adapts what it does in Slack — pausing for approval on anything outbound or irreversible.
Will it act in Slack without asking me?
Only for read-only steps. Writes are logged, and anything destructive or outbound needs an explicit human approval — credentials are scoped to the run and expire with it.
