The Jira integration allows Sleuth to use Jira Cloud as a deployment issue tracker. When you deploy, Sleuth will automatically connect your Jira issues to the deploys, so you can always find the source of your changes later. Direct links to related Jira projects are provided in the deploy cards, allowing you to quickly see the Jira issues that affect your deploys.
Integration with Jira Cloud is made at the Sleuth organization level. More than one can be integrated with an organization. Although you can have multiple projects within an organization, each project can only configured to use a single issue tracker. Bitbucket, due to its own integration with Jira Cloud, can be used as one of those since Bitbucket can automatically connect to your Jira issues as long as both of those Atlassian products are both logged in with the same account. Bitbucket can also serve as a code deployment source change.
Once Jira Cloud is configured as the issue tracker, every time the Jira issue key is included in a deploy's commit message, Sleuth will automatically link that deploy with the corresponding issue in Jira Cloud.
To set up the Sleuth Jira Cloud integration for your Sleuth organization:

In the Jira Cloud tile, click Enable.
Enter the fully qualified URL of your Jira Cloud instance, the authorized User's Email, and the corresponding API Token into the respective fields, then click Save. To quickly access your Jira Cloud instance to obtain an API token, click the generate link in the title.
