Create Jira Tickets
Learn how to automatically monitor your data pipeline and create Jira tickets when dbt™ runs fail in Bolt. This integration helps data teams track and respond to pipeline failures efficiently by connecting Bolt's pipeline monitoring with Jira's issue tracking system.
What You'll Get
When a run fails, Bolt automatically creates a Jira ticket containing:
Schedule name and workspace
Various Run details to help you debug, like:
Run ID with link to Paradime
Execution Start and end time
Commands executed Branch information.
