Jira by Atlassian is the most widely used project tracking tool for software development and IT teams. It supports issues, sprints, custom workflows, and extensive custom fields for tracking any type of work item.
Cursive creates Jira issues when enterprise-grade visitors are identified, bridging the gap between marketing visitor data and the tools your technical sales and implementation teams already use. Track high-value prospects through your existing Jira workflows without switching tools.
When a visitor is identified by Cursive, here is exactly how that data maps into Jira. No manual entry, no copy-pasting between tabs—just clean, structured records ready for your team to act on.
| Cursive Field | Jira Field | What Happens |
|---|---|---|
| Identified Visitors | Jira Issues | High-value visitors create Jira issues with visitor details in the description and custom fields. |
| Company Profiles | Jira Custom Fields | Company name, size, and industry populate Jira custom fields for filtering and JQL queries. |
| Visitor Segments | Jira Projects | Different visitor tiers route to different Jira projects (e.g., Enterprise vs. Mid-Market). |
| Engagement Scores | Jira Priority Field | Engagement scores map to Jira issue priority for triaging and sprint planning. |

Connecting Cursive with Jira unlocks workflows that save hours every week and make sure no qualified lead slips through the cracks. Here are some of the most popular automations our customers set up on day one.
When Cursive identifies a visitor from a target enterprise account viewing technical documentation or API pages, create a Jira issue in your sales engineering project. The issue includes company context and technical interest areas so SEs can prepare relevant demo environments.
Use Jira workflows to move visitor issues through stages: Identified, Research, Outreach, Meeting, Technical Evaluation, Proposal, Closed. Your team uses the same Jira board they already work in, with full visibility into prospect status.
When an enterprise visitor converts to a customer, link the original Cursive Jira issue to an implementation epic. All the visitor context (pages viewed, technical interests, company requirements) carries over to inform the implementation plan.
These are just the starting point. With Cursive's visitor identification data flowing into Jira, you can build any workflow your revenue team needs.

Yes. Use Jira issue linking to connect Cursive visitor issues to implementation epics, support tickets, or feature requests in other projects for full traceability.
