aqua pre-requisites

To connect the plugin, you need to create a technical user in aqua and assign them the Jira plugin license.

This license is included with every paid aqua subscription by default, at no extra cost.

Creating a technical user works the same way as adding any other user in aqua. For step-by-step instructions, check out our guide: How to add a new user.

Once user is created, you need to assign all projects from which you'd like to link test cases and test scerios (suites). Since technical user doesn't modify any items, a role with read-only permissions will suffice.

At the configuration page, please provide:

• Your server URL

• You API username

• Your API user password

Next, choose whether you want to enable test cases, test scenarios, or both.

You can also restrict access to specific Jira projects if needed.

Once you've set your preferences, click Save to apply the configuration.

The plugin is ready to be used.
