Connect to Jira Data in RazorSQL



Connect to Jira from wizards and query Jira data from the GUI in the RazorSQL database management tool.

The CData JDBC Driver for Jira enables standards-based access from third-party tools, from wizards in IDEs to data management and analysis tools. This article shows how to connect to Jira using wizards in RazorSQL.

Create a JDBC Data Source for Jira Data

  1. Open the RazorSQL application and, in the Connections menu, select Add Connection Profile -> Other -> JDBC.
  2. In the Connection Wizard that appears, set the following properties:
    • Driver Location: Set this property to the path to the lib subfolder in the installation directory.
    • Driver Class: Set the driver class to cdata.jdbc.jira.JIRADriver.
    • Username: Enter the username. (This property can also be set in the JDBC URL.)
    • Password: Enter the password. (This property can also be set in the JDBC URL.)
    • JDBC URL: Enter connection parameters. The JDBC URL begins with jdbc:jira: and is followed by a semicolon-separated list of connection properties.

      To connect to JIRA, provide the User and Password. Additionally, provide the Url; for example, https://yoursitename.atlassian.net.

      Built-in Connection String Designer

      For assistance in constructing the JDBC URL, use the connection string designer built into the Jira JDBC Driver. Either double-click the JAR file or execute the jar file from the command-line.

      java -jar cdata.jdbc.jira.jar

      Fill in the connection properties and copy the connection string to the clipboard.

      A typical JDBC URL is the following:

      jdbc:jira:User=admin;Password=123abc;Url=https://yoursitename.atlassian.net;

Query Jira Data and Select Tables

After establishing a connection, the wizard will close and the connection will be available in the connections panel. You can then query the tables.
