GitHub Copilot integrates with Jira
Issue tracking joins the Copilot app, and JetBrains gains an enterprise sandbox control.
GitHub Copilot now integrates with Jira in the Copilot app. What the integration actually does is not yet clear: the changelog records that it exists, not which Jira operations it supports, so there is nothing to act on until that is documented.
Enterprise administrators get a more definite change. They can now configure sandbox behavior for GitHub Copilot in JetBrains IDEs, and that enterprise-managed sandbox feature was released on September 8.
The same weekly release covers VS Code 1.137, which includes new agent automation features in public preview.
