# Jira

Request screen recordings from Jira issues.

Screendesk generates a link your user can open in their browser. No install required.

### Before you start

* Install the Screendesk browser extension. See [Browser support](https://docs.screendesk.io/bug-reports/getting-started/browser-support).
* Connect your Jira integration in Screendesk.

### Request a recording from a Jira issue

Use **Copy & Attach to Ticket** to keep recordings tied to the right issue.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Open the issue

Open the Jira issue you’re working in.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Open Screendesk

Click the Screendesk icon in your browser toolbar.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Copy the issue link

Open the dropdown next to **Copy Link**.

Select **Copy & Attach to Ticket** (it will show the issue key, like `PROJ-123`).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Send it to the reporter

Paste the link into a Jira comment.

Tell the user what you need them to record.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### After the user records

1. The user opens your link and records their screen.
2. The recording uploads to Screendesk.
3. You get an email notification with a link to view it.
4. The recording attaches to the Jira issue automatically.

### If you don’t see “Copy & Attach to Ticket”

Use a general **Copy Link** instead.

This can happen when:

* You’re not on an issue page.
* The issue key isn’t visible yet (page still loading).
* Jira isn’t connected in Screendesk.

### Notes
