Can I trigger Jira actions directly from a Microsoft Teams chat using natural language?
Yes, the Jira Cloud for Microsoft Teams app now understands natural language through Atlassian Rovo. Typing '@Jira' followed by a plain-language request, such as 'move PROJ-142 to In Review' or 'assign PROJ-205 to Jira Coding Agent,' lets Jira read the thread context and create, update, or assign work items without opening Jira directly. Teams relying on chat-driven workflows can follow daily.dev for updates on Jira and Teams integrations.
What is Atlassian Rovo and how does it work with Microsoft 365 Copilot?
Atlassian Rovo is an AI agent that connects Microsoft 365 Copilot and Teams to Atlassian's Teamwork Graph, a connected map of work items and owners in Jira, documentation in Confluence, and code in GitHub or Bitbucket. It lets users search across Jira, Confluence, SharePoint, and other tools, and take actions like creating Jira items or updating Confluence pages from within Copilot or Teams. Anyone weighing AI agent integrations across their stack can track tools like Rovo on daily.dev.
