Jcreate takes into account the Jira permission schemes. Confluence users can create, edit and view the issues in the Jira projects to which they have permission.

Finally, clicking on the ‘Create’ button will create a new issue in Jira, linked to the Confluence page.

After refreshing the page, the Jira issue will be mentioned in the page in one of the following ways :

1. Jira issue macro will be added right at the end of the marked text
