Destination Configuration for Microsoft Intune Importer
Jira Connection Configuration
Our application leverages Jira Rest API for programmatic access while updating Object Schema, Object Type, and Attribute configurations of JSM Assets.
You need help from a Jira Administrator for the steps on this page.
In addition, you can use the Current Site option to connect to current site. However, if you do require to connect to an external site, please follow the steps below. If not, start from step 6.
To set up a Destination, select the “+” symbol.
The importer now supports two connection types: Current Site and External Site. This setting determines where the imported data is stored — either in the current site’s Assets schema (default) or in another site’s Assets schema. By default, the connection is set to Current Site, if you do require External Site Connection, please follow the steps here.

Troubleshooting Connection Issues
If you don’t receive a success message, check the following:
User Permissions: Ensure the user is a Jira Admin and has a JSM User license.
Site Allow List: If an IP allow list is enabled, add the Forge IP addresses to grant access to your site through our application.
Schema Selection Configuration
To begin with, please click on the Set/Select Button under Object Schema.
Once the dialog appears, you have two options:
Create a new Object Schema
Use an existing Object Schema
Pro Tip: We recommend creating a new Object Schema to store Intune related data separately. This allows you to assign roles only to necessary users or groups. Since the imported data includes personal information, ensure compliance with your organization’s data policies.
Option 1: Create a New Object Schema
Fill in the following fields:
Object Schema Name: MF Intune
Object Schema Key: MFT
Description: Auto-generated Microsoft Intune data
Then, click "Create Object Schema" to proceed.
Please Note: The links to the new schema will be shown above the configuration, just below the Schema Selection Configuration Heading.
|
Option 2: Use an Existing Object Schema
Select an Existing Object Schema.
Click "Use Existing Object Schema" to continue.
If the selected schema already contains the same Object Types, you will be notified and required to update them before moving forward.
Pro tip: Either you chose Option 1 or 2, make sure that you remove the default values from the Object Schema Roles menu. It should look like the following.
Then, only add the relevant users, groups, or apps.
Import Token Configuration
To import a large amount of data into JSM Assets, you need to generate a key that securely authorizes the data transfer (more info).
Please add the Import Token for your External Import configuration in Assets.
Once Schema is created/selected, you can click on the Object Schema, which will reveal the Links to the schema:
|
Navigate to the "Import" tab and click "Create Import" to begin the setup.
Select "External Import" and click "Next".
Enter a Name and Description.
Click the three dots (…) and select "Generate new token".
Copy the generated token.
Return back to Destination. Click Set button and paste the token into the Import Token field then click "Save & Check".

Now, it is time to Import.
