This can save you time and effort by eliminating the need to manually create and manage GlitchTip issues in Bugasura.

Introducing GlitchTip Sync Integration

GlitchTip is an open-source error-tracking and uptime-monitoring platform that helps developers catch and fix bugs in their web applications. GlitchTip monitors your platform and adds issues to the GlitchTip project whenever an error event happens in the GlitchTip integrated project.

The GlitchTip Sync Integration helps you to automatically synchronize GlitchTip issues with your Bugasura projects. Instead of manually creating and managing issues, this integration automates the process, ensuring that newly identified errors in your web applications are seamlessly transferred to your Bugasura project.

Why should you use it?

By integrating GlitchTip Sync with Bugasura, you can:

* Save Time and Effort: Eliminate the manual task of transferring issues from GlitchTip to Bugasura, saving your team valuable time and effort or marking them closed or open one-by-one.
* Enhance Collaboration: Facilitate better communication and collaboration between your development and project management teams by centralizing issue tracking in Bugasura.
* Streamline Workflows: Ensure that error events identified by GlitchTip are promptly addressed and resolved within Bugasura’s organized workflow.

Usage

Once the GlitchTip issue is pulled to Bugasura, you can also view the event details and comments from the GlitchTip issue in the Bugasura issue.

Each event detail will be added as an Attachment file in the Bugasura issue. This can be helpful for debugging and tracking the progress of an issue. Also, Comments added to Bugasura issues will be pushed to the corresponding GlitchTip issue, ensuring smooth communication between teams.

GlitchTip Import Integration
