Jira + Chat: One Conversation Across Slack and Teams
Jira's own apps post updates in Slack and Microsoft Teams. SyncRivo bridges the channels so both teams discuss them together.
Close the Loop Between Slack & Teams
Keep everyone in the same discussion, whichever chat tool they use.
The "Context Switch" Tax
Engineers live in Jira and Slack. Operations and leadership live in Teams. Discussing a ticket means copy-pasting updates between chat tools.
Keep each team in its own chat tool. Jira's native apps post updates on each platform, and SyncRivo bridges the Slack and Teams channels so the discussion happens in one place.
Incident Chaos
During an outage, responders split across Slack and Teams war rooms, and updates get lost between them.
Bridge the war room. Messages, threads, @mentions and files in the incident channel stay in sync between Slack and Teams, so everyone works from the same conversation.
Two Audiences, Two Platforms
The Jira app posts to the Slack channel, but the decision maker is in Teams and never sees the follow-up discussion.
One bridged channel. People on Slack and Teams reply in the same thread, and SyncRivo keeps edits and deletes in sync on both sides.
The SyncRivo Advantage
Secure Routing Layer
Messages are encrypted in transit (TLS) and message content is not stored on the normal relay path — only message IDs are kept to sync threads, edits and reactions.
Enterprise Identity & Directory Sync
Directory sync on Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Webex and Zoom Team Chat, so mentions and sender names stay consistent across platforms.
Governance & Activity Logs
Activity log and security event history (JSON export), per-connection admin switches and owner/admin/member roles. BAA available for Enterprise customers; DPA and sub-processor list available.

Keep Slack and Teams users in the same conversation
Incident Response

Internal IT Helpdesk
Employees on Slack and Teams ask for help in a bridged #it-support channel, and the IT team answers once for both platforms.
Sprint Planning Discussions
Product managers on Teams and engineers on Slack discuss specs and sprint changes in one bridged channel.
Sales Engineering Requests
Sales on Teams and sales engineers on Slack coordinate demo requests in a shared bridged channel.
Common Questions
No. Jira's own Slack and Microsoft Teams apps post notifications and let people act on tickets. SyncRivo does not integrate with Jira and does not relay bot or app messages. It bridges the human conversation between your Slack and Teams channels, so people on both platforms can discuss the issue together.
Use Jira's native Slack or Teams app for that. SyncRivo keeps the thread itself in sync across Slack and Teams — replies, edits, @mentions and files — so everyone sees the same discussion before and after a ticket is created.
No. SyncRivo connects only to your chat platforms (Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Webex and Zoom Team Chat) via OAuth2. Jira permissions stay with Jira's own chat apps.
Three-Platform Bridges
Connect three enterprise messaging platforms simultaneously with SyncRivo's cross-platform bridges.
Bridge Your Incident Channels
Bridge Slack and Teams channels through a guided pilot. Your first channel bridge is typically live during onboarding, once your admins approve the app.
