How to consolidate GitHub issues into a single Jira Cloud project?

[Zoya Khan]

What’s the best way to integrate and consolidate issue data from multiple GitHub repositories into a single Jira project for centralized tracking and reporting?

I’m looking for a reliable solution to automatically sync GitHub issues (including fields like title, description, status, labels, and assignees) from multiple repos into one Jira project. Ideally, I want to maintain two-way sync so that updates in Jira reflect back in GitHub.

Has anyone implemented this using native integrations, webhooks, or a third-party app (like Exalate or similar)? I’d also appreciate any best practices for field mapping, handling status transitions, and avoiding data duplication.

Environment: Jira Cloud + multiple GitHub repos.

Any architecture suggestions, automation workflows, or examples would be great.

Surprisingly, there are multiple apps that provide bi-directional syncing between GitHub and Jira Cloud. They sync not only work items, but other entities as well.

I think you should run your own research. Implementing this with webhooks and APIs can be quite an effort, so I'd try to find a ready-made app instead.
