Only supports Jira Cloud. Does not support Jira Server (hosted)

Usage

Note: this action requires Jira Login Action

To add comment to an issue you need to specify an issue key and a comment as action inputs, like:

- name: Comment on issue
  uses: atlassian/gajira-comment@master
  with:
  issue: INC-2
  comment: ${{ github.event.pusher.name }} pushed to repository: ${{ github.event.repository.full_name }}

You can interpolate fields from GitHub event which triggered the workflow into a comment body. For example, if you set your workflow to be triggered on the push event, you can specify the pusher name in comment body by including ${{ github.event.pusher }} field from the push event:

"${{ github.event.pusher.name }} pushed to repository: ${{ github.event.repository.full_name }}"

Which will result in comment:

Codertocat pushed to repository: Codertocat/Hello-World
