This section describes how to configure 
               		Atlassian JIRA (JIRA) issue tracking profiles to integrate with 
               		Silk Central. 
               	 
            
 
            	 
            The 
               		JIRA plug-in relies on the 
               		Silk Central Java API for integration, using 
               		JIRA's REST API. 
               	 
            
 
            	 
            Versions that are currently supported for integration with

            If you assign an external 
               		JIRA issue to a test, you can enter the issue ID either with or without the project key. For example: 
               		PROJECT-13 or just 
               		13.
