Download

Install Compare

Jira HotLinker is a Chrome extension designed for developers and project managers who want quick access to Jira ticket metadata without leaving their workflow. On GitHub and other configured sites, simply hover over a Jira ticket number or link to view a comprehensive tooltip showing ticket details such as the title, description, attachments, issue type, status, priority, comment count, and even related pull requests.

New features include GitHub Enterprise support for pull requests and the ability to copy ticket titles to the clipboard. Users can customize which domains the extension is active on and pin tickets on-screen for easy reference. Privacy is a priority: Jira HotLinker does not store user data, requires minimal permissions, and never asks for Jira credentials. While optimized for GitHub, it also offers experimental support on platforms like Google Docs, making it a versatile tool for seamless Jira integration.
