Introduction

​
What Are Ticket Links?

Ticket links are external URLs associated with tickets that provide additional context, resources, or integration with other systems. They serve as bridges between your Ravenna tickets and external tools your team uses. Key Features:
  • External URL connections - Link to any external resource
  • Custom naming - Give links descriptive names for easy identification
  • System integration - Bi-directional sync with external ticketing systems
Ticket links come in two main forms: Manual Links:
  • URLs you manually add to provide context
  • Reference documents, pull requests, or external resources
  • Simple name and URL pairs for easy access
System Integration Links:
  • Automatically created through external system integrations
  • Bi-directional sync with tools like Slack, Jira and Linear
  • Real-time updates and webhook connections
When you create or manage ticket links:
  • Links are associated with specific tickets
  • Each link has a name and URL for easy identification
  • Links are visible to anyone who can access the ticket
  • External system integrations can create webhooks for real-time updates
