Jira search engine in your browser

Published on in Tools

Here's how you can add the ability to search and directly access Jira tickets from within your browser's URL bar.

Go to Settings > Search Engines > Manage Search Engines and add a new engine with the details below:

Chrome's "Edit search engine" dialog with the search engine set to "Jira", the keyword set to "jira", and the URL set to "https://hello.atlassian.net/secure/QuickSearch.jspa?searchString=%s"

Save the changes and in your omnibox, type in jira and press tab, then enter a ticket name and after hitting enter you should be redirected there.

Also, since we are using Jira's search URL, we can search for tickets via keywords if you don't remember the ticket number.
