How to define a JIRA project in Krugle
You must create a Krugle Project that will automatically collect the information from your JIRA
system that you want to make searchable in Krugle. This process is described below.
To make JIRA information searchable in Krugle you will need to (A) create a JIRA SCMI Data
Repository and (B) create a Krugle Project that is based on that Data Repository. Details for
these steps:
Create a JIRA SCMI Data Repository
1)
Verify that the JIRA SCMI service is running properly
2)
Sign in to the Krugle Administration Console from an internet browser. Enter the
host name URL assigned to Krugle Enterprise during the initial installation
process, with ":8080" appended to the end of the URL as the port address. In the
example below, the base IP address is 192.168.2.188.

3)
Enter valid administration credentials (i.e. those specified during initial
installation of Krugle Enterprise) to Sign In to Krugle. You will then see the
Status tab of the Administration Console:
4)
Click the Projects tab to go to Projects Summary page:

5)
Click the Data Repositories option in the left navigation pane. You’ll see the
Data Repositories that are currently defined in your system. These Data
Repositories are database records that contain the information that Krugle needs
to connect to information servers on your network:
6)
To add a Repository in Krugle that will store your JIRA information, click the Add
New Data Repository button. You will then see the Data Repository definition
page:
7)
Select SCMI from the Data RepositoryType drop down list – as shown below:

8)
Enter the verified IP address or hostname which the JIRA SCMI running on, from
step 1) above:
9)
Click Next button to continue defining the Data Repository:

10)
Enter a descriptive name for the Data Repository. Unless specifically directed by
Krugle, you won’t need to change the Path, Port or Connection Type fields:
11)
Click Save button to complete the specification of the new Data Repository. You’ll
return to the Data Repositories screen:
This completes the process of creating a Data Repository. In the next section, we’ll create a
Krugle Project that uses this Data Repository to collect the selected data from the repository (all
of it or part of it) – that you want Krugle to search.

Create a Krugle Project with JIRA SCMI Data Repository
A Krugle Project is a definition of the specific data you want Krugle to crawl. A
Krugle Project can contain all of the information from a JIRA system or other data
repository (or several repositories), or just a portion of that information.
Additionally, the Krugle Project can be specified to crawl that information once or
to automatically re-crawl and update that information in the future.
Here, we explain how to create a Krugle Project for an existing JIRA project. We
use exoplatform (https://jira.exoplatform.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa) to create a
Krugle Project for the JIRA project Chromattic 1.1.x which has a fixfor version
number12084. NOTE: you can find the JIRA fixfor version version number by
inspecting the internet browser address area – as shown below:
NOTE: If you want to access this example JIRA project above:
• Go to eXoplatform Dashboards page
• Click the Chromattic Project name in Projects area,

•
Click 1.1.x version link in Road Map right area.
To create the Krugle Project for this JIRA example, we first must navigate to the
Projects Summary page in the Krugle Admin console (see Step 2 above if you’re
currently not signed in to the Admin console):
Next:
1) In Project Summary page, click the Add New Project option located directly
beneath and to the right of the Snapshot Status area:

2) On the Add/Edit Project page, click the Advanced Setting link:

3) Enter the Project information requested in the form. Fields marked with an *
are required:
4) Click the Next button after entering the Project metadata into the form. You
will go to the second step of Add/Edit Project page like following picture:

5) Select the Data Repository type which you created in previous section from
the dropdown list (in the following screen, we are selecting the Jira-SCMI):
6) After selecting the Jira SCMI Type, enter the Location (as the IP and Port
address obtained when visiting the Jira website), the Parameter (login
credentials) and Alias fields:

7) When finished, Click the Add Data Set button:

8) Click the Finish button to create the Krugle Project. NOTE: this example
uses only one Data Set; multiple Data Sets are supported – but not
demonstrated here.
9) You will be redirected to the Project Summary page where the newly created
project will be displayed:
10) At this point, Krugle will begin to crawl and index your project. After these
steps are successfully completed, you will see a Green check icon in the
Status column for the project:

This completes the specification of a Krugle Project for JIRA data. The
information from the JIRA project can now be searched in Krugle.
To search Krugle for the work item issues in the new created project:
● Go to Krugle Search Environment(KSE), point your browser to the URL
shown in the VMware console window when Krugle was installed. In this
example, that URL is http://192.168.2.188:
Krugle SCMI Reference – JIRA 03.14

● Enter the search term: project:exo-jira-issues-Chromattic, where
exo-jira-issues-Chromattic is the Krugle project name you created.

● For this term, Krugle will search and list all records in the JIRA project. The
results will appear as a list in the Krugle Search Environment results page:
● You can click any file name link (blue text) from the result list to view
details of that result. For example, clicking “CMTC-24”:from the preceding
list will display the following information about that record:
