Quick summary

6. Select the Jira project and status you want to track.
7. Run a test to ensure Zapier detects the Jira event correctly.
8. Add Datadog as the Action App in your Zap.
9. Select a Datadog action event to define what happens when the trigger fires.
10. Connect Datadog, map Jira fields to metrics, test the sync, and click "Publish" to activate your Zap.
