FAQ

FAQ

Practical questions and detailed answers about the AI agent.

The AI agent reacts to Jira issue creation and selected updates via webhooks. It extracts key fields such as issue key, summary, priority, status, and assignee, formats a concise message, and sends it to the appropriate Telegram chat. If delivery fails, the agent logs the error and retries according to configuration. You can customize triggers and mapping through Jira automation and the agent settings.

Yes. Recipient mapping is configured to link Jira accounts (accountId) with Telegram chats (chatId). This mapping can be project-specific or global, allowing precise routing to the correct user or group chat. You can adjust mappings in the Telegram account configuration, and you can override for individual issues via automation rules if needed.

If a message cannot be delivered, the AI agent records the failure with details such as error code and timestamp. It retries according to the configured policy and notifies administrators if repeated failures occur. There is an audit trail to diagnose issues with bot permissions, chat availability, or token validity.

The AI agent stores bot tokens and mapping information securely in a credentials vault or encrypted storage. Access is restricted to authorized users, and tokens are never exposed in messages. Regular reviews and rotation policies can be configured to enhance security.

Yes. You can simulate Jira events and use a test Telegram chat to verify the end-to-end flow. The AI agent provides a test payload and a dry-run mode to validate message content, recipient resolution, and delivery status without affecting real data.

The current setup described assumes Jira Cloud with webhooks and automation. If you use Jira Server, you may need equivalent webhooks and REST API access to feed issue data and trigger the Telegram notifications. Some adjustments to URLs, authentication, and payload format may be required.

The AI agent scales by using per-user mappings and batched processing for incoming events. Each issue event is handled independently, and delivery logs help maintain visibility across thousands of messages. You can adjust webhook throughput limits and retry policies to accommodate larger teams.
