# Mapping Fields for Issue Types

This document provides step-by-step instructions on how to integrate SimplifyQA with Jira by mapping fields for each issue type. This integration allows for seamless synchronization of data between the two platforms, enhancing collaboration and efficiency in the software development process.

### Prerequisites

* You must have an active SimplifyQA account with appropriate permissions to configure integrations.
* You must have a Jira instance with necessary permissions to create mapping.
* You must have established a connection between SimplifyQA and Jira.

### How to map project and fields?

1. **Navigate to Project Settings:**

* Once logged in, navigate to the project where you want to integrate with Jira.
* On the project details page, locate the 'Integrations' section.
* Click on the "Jira Integration" option.

**3. Map Issue Types:**

* In the Jira Integration settings, you will see a list of available issue types in Jira.
* Select the desired issue type from the list.
* For each selected issue type, you will need to map the corresponding fields between SimplifyQA and Jira.

**4. Map Fields:**

* The mapping process involves matching fields from SimplifyQA to their equivalent fields in Jira.
* For each field in SimplifyQA, select the corresponding field in Jira from the dropdown menu.
* You can also customize the mapping by adding or removing fields as needed.

**5. Configure Data Flow:**

* Configure the data flow between SimplifyQA and Jira. This involves specifying whether data should be synchronized from SimplifyQA to Jira, Jira to SimplifyQA, or both directions.
* You can also set up filters to control which data is synchronized.

**6. Save and Test:**

* Once you have completed the field mapping and data flow configuration, click the "Save" button.
* Test the integration by creating or editing an issue in SimplifyQA. The changes should be reflected in Jira, and vice versa.

**Additional Notes:**

* You can map multiple issue types to different Jira projects.
* If you encounter any issues or errors during the integration process, review the logs in SimplifyQA and Jira for more information.
* It is recommended to test the integration thoroughly before using it in a production environment.
