go-jira is a Go client library for the Atlassian Jira REST API, supporting authentication (Basic, OAuth, session cookie, bearer/PAT), issue creation and retrieval, and issue transitions. It is not API-complete but allows calling any Jira endpoint, with a v2 rewrite in development on the main branch.

Use cases

• create jira issues from a go program
• automate jira ticket status transitions
• query jira issues via the rest api in go
• authenticate to jira with a personal access token
• build a slack bot that syncs with jira
• call unimplemented jira api endpoints from go

When to choose

• you need to integrate Jira with Go code or tooling
• you want a lightweight, go-gettable client covering auth and common issue operations
• you need to call arbitrary Jira REST endpoints not wrapped by the library

When to avoid

• you need full Jira API coverage out of the box
• you need a stable API and cannot tolerate breaking changes from the in-development v2 main branch
• you are not working in Go
