With Exalate, you can synchronize HP ALM defects with Jira issues.
It's possible to synchronize HP ALM Instance with Jira Cloud or with Jira on-premise Instance(even if the Jira on-premise instance is not accessible from the public network).
Exalate protocols are fully asynchronous, which implies that both ends must be able to initiate HTTP(s) requests.
To set up synchronization between HP ALM/QC and Jira instance you need the following components:
| HP ALM/QC Instance | Jira Instance | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | HP ALM Instance | Jira Instance |
| 2 | Exalate app for HP ALM/QC(installed on a separate Server) | Exalate app for Jira installed on the Jira instance |
| 3 | A network that allows unobstructed HTTP(S) based communication | |
| 4 | Valid Exalate license. | |
