    • Select the Jira project. The tickets will be created under this project.
    • Choose whether the Jira ticket must be created for all observations/hypotheses or only for selected ones.
      1. Select Push all observations/Push all hypotheses to enable Jira ticket creation for all observations/hypotheses created in Wingify. If this option is selected, a Jira ticket is created for each observation/hypothesis by default.
      2. Select Let me choose to enable Jira ticket creation only for select observations or hypotheses. If this option is selected, the user can decide if they want a Jira ticket created for each observation or hypothesis individually.

12. Click Save.
