Overview

Ziggy uses a project resolution system to determine which Jira project to create issues in. You can set defaults using the Home tab in Slack.

Project Resolution Priority

When you create an issue, Ziggy determines the project in this order:
  1. Inline specification - Ziggy in PROJ: create a task
  2. Default project - Set via the Home tab
  3. Most active project - Falls back to the most recently used project

Setting Default Project

Open the Ziggy Home tab in Slack and configure your default project there. This is where you manage all project settings.

Inline Override

Specify the project in your message to override any defaults:
Ziggy in BACKEND: create a bug for the API timeout
Ziggy create a task in MOBILE for the app crash

Examples

Scenario 1: Single-project team

A small team all working on the same project:
  1. Set default project to ACME in the Home tab
  2. All team members create issues without specifying project
  3. All issues go to ACME

Scenario 2: Cross-team collaboration

When creating an issue for another team:
Ziggy in MOBILE: create a bug for the iOS crash @mobileteam mentioned
The inline in MOBILE: overrides any defaults.

Viewing Current Settings

Check your current project configuration:
/ziggy status
Or open the Ziggy Home tab to see and change your defaults.
