Jira with orbit CLI

Manage Jira issues, epics, sprints, boards, projects, releases, custom fields, screens, statuses, and issue types using the orbit CLI. Supports both Jira Cloud (REST API v3) and Jira Server/Data Center (REST API v2) with multi-profile support and 1Password secret resolution.

Prerequisites

  1. orbit CLI installed — if which orbit fails, install with:
    • macOS/Linux (Homebrew): brew install jorgemuza/tap/orbit
    • macOS/Linux (script): curl -sSfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jorgemuza/orbit/main/install.sh | sh
    • Windows (Scoop): scoop bucket add jorgemuza https://github.com/jorgemuza/scoop-bucket && scoop install orbit
  2. A profile with a jira-cloud or jira-onprem service configured in ~/.config/orbit/config.yaml
  3. Valid credentials — API token for Cloud (basic auth with email + token), PAT for Server
  4. Credentials can be stored in 1Password with op:// prefix for automatic resolution

Quick Reference

All commands follow the pattern: orbit -p <profile> jira <resource> <action> [flags]

The -o flag controls output format: table (default), json, yaml.
