Info

In addition to the 3rd party plugin described below, Atlassian has introduced a native canned response feature with limited functionality. This native feature can be accessed from within the comment box on any ticket. Agents can use whichever version they prefer, however the 3rd plugin described below offers additional functionality and sharing options.

  1. Login to Jira and navigate to Projects>ITS Service Desk.

  2. In the lefthand menu, click Canned Responses section.

  3. Click on Create Template in the top right

  4. Give the template a name.

  5. The visibility scope allows you to control who will see the template.

    1. If you would like this Response to be private to you, choose Personal.

    2. If it’s a template that you would like to share with other members of your team, you can do so by choosing Group.
      Example - If I am part of the Technology Support Group, and I want to share this template with other members of the group, I would choose “JSD-its-technology support center” as the group to share it with.

  6. Check the boxes for where you would like your template to appear while you are working on a ticket.

    1. Issue Comments - The template will be available when adding an internal note, replying to a customer (in Jira Service Management), or leaving a comment (in Jira Software).

    2. Issue Description - The template will be available when adding a description in the issue view.

  7. Response Content - This is where you enter the text you’d like to use for your canned response. You can also use dynamic variables that will populate based on info in the ticket.
    Example - Issue Key will enter the ticket number.
