# Jira integrations
## Introduction
GitLab Issues are a tool for discussing ideas and planning and tracking work. However, your organization may already use Jira for these purposes, with
extensive, established data and business processes they rely on.
Although you can [migrate](../../../user/project/import/jira.md) your Jira issues and work exclusively in GitLab, you also have the option of continuing to use Jira by using GitLab's Jira integrations.
## Integrations
The following Jira integrations allow different types of cross-referencing between GitLab activity and Jira issues, with additional features:
- [**Jira integration**](jira.md) - This is built in to GitLab. In a given GitLab project, it can be configured to connect to any Jira instance, self-managed or Cloud.

- [**Jira development panel integration**](../../../integration/jira_development_panel.md) - This connects all GitLab projects under a specified group or personal namespace.

- If you're using Jira Cloud and GitLab.com, install the [GitLab for Jira](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1221011/gitlab-for-jira) app in the Atlassian Marketplace and see its [documentation](../../../integration/jira_development_panel.md#gitlab-for-jira-app).
- For all other environments, use the [Jira DVCS Connector configuration instructions](../../../integration/jira_development_panel.md#configuration).
