How do I convert a Stormboard Sticky Note to a Jira Issue Sticky Note?

Jira Issue Sticky Notes let you create and track Jira Issues in Stormboard.

Jira Issue Sticky Notes link directly to specific issues in Jira. They are differentiated from regular Sticky Notes with a white background and coloured border. They show the issue type, ID, and priority in the top left corner of the Sticky Note, and changes made to the issue in Jira will automatically update the Jira Issue Sticky Note in Stormboard.

Jira Issue Sticky Notes can be created by dragging an Issue from a Jira backlog section. They can also be created by first creating a regular Sticky Note and converting it into a Jira Issue Sticky Note.

To convert a Stormboard Sticky Note into a Jira Issue Sticky Note:

  1. Create a text Sticky Note by double clicking your Storm, where the text is the title of the issue you would like to create.
