Configuring "Write/Update" Settings

Configuring Write Permissions and Editable Fields

Control which user groups can edit data and define which Jira and HubSpot fields are editable across the integration.

Overview

The Write Permissions tab determines who can create HubSpot records from Jira, who can create and update Jira work items from HubSpot, and which fields they can set. Existing HubSpot records are never updated by the app. Use these settings to keep control over sensitive data and ensure that users can only update the information you want them to.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Assign Write/Update Permissions

  1. Go to Jira settingsAppsHubSpot CRM Configuration.

  2. Open the Write Permissions tab.

  3. In the Specify Groups section, select the user groups who should have permission to create HubSpot records, and to create or update Jira work items, through the integration.

Only selected groups will have write/update access between HubSpot and Jira.

Step 2: Configure Editable Jira Fields in HubSpot

  1. Under Specify Jira Fields for HubSpot, click on Jira Fields Settings.

  3. Choose the work type for which you want to control field editability.

  4. Select which Jira fields HubSpot users can edit directly from HubSpot.

  5. Drag and drop the fields to arrange their order of appearance in the HubSpot object card and in the issue creation form within HubSpot.

Step 3: Configure Multiple Projects & Work Types

  • Repeat Step 2 for every Jira space and work type combination that you want to control field editability for.

  • This ensures your team can update the right Jira information from HubSpot, for all relevant projects and work types.

Step 4: Configure Editable HubSpot Object Properties in Jira

  1. In the Specify HubSpot Fields for Jira section, use the dropdowns to select which HubSpot object properties should be editable for Jira users.
