Hi All,

Please help on this as i have ad-hoc project which needs to be finished today.  
I want to create jira action from kibana.  
i went through the below link -  
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack-overview/current/actions-jira.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack-overview/current/actions-jira.html)

```
    "actions" : {
      "create-jira-issue" : {
        "transform" : { ... },
        "throttle_period" : "5m",
        "jira" : {
          "account" : "integration-account", 
          "fields" : {
              "project" : {
                "key": "CPM" 
              },
              "issuetype" : {
                "name": "Incident" 
              },
              "summary" : "Encountered {{ctx.payload.hits.total.value}} errors in the last 5 minutes", 
              "description" : "Encountered {{ctx.payload.hits.total.value}} errors in the last 5 minutes (facepalm)", 
              "labels" : ["CPM_Test"], 
              "priority" : {
                "name" : "High" 
              }
          }
        }
      }
    }

```

Jira configuration in elasticsearch.yml is according to the documentation. below is my configuration.

```
xpack.notification.jira:
  default_account: monitoring
  account:
    monitoring:
      secure_url: http://localhost:8080
      secure_user: ManjunathanR  
      secure_password: *******
      message_default:
        from: watcher

```

but JIRA action execution fails getting the below error msg - **xpack.notification.jira.JiraAccount.requiredSettingException**

```
