Hi,

Synchronization: Azure Devops to Jira Data Center

Setup in Azure Devops:

outgoing:

//Send a Custom Field value  
replica.customKeys.“ReproSteps” = workItem.“Microsoft.VSTS.TCM.ReproSteps”

//Severity  
replica.severity = workItem.“Microsoft.VSTS.Common.Severity”

this gives in the local replica somewhere in the json

…

```auto
   "customKeys": {
      "ReproSteps": "<div>Test for synchronizing description</div>"
    },

```

```auto
   "severityName": "2 - High",

```

…

what do we have to configure on Jira side to get these fields correctly synchronized?

Thanks in advance and best regards

Eloise

For anyone searching to do the same:

on Jira Data Center side just add this to incoming:

// Repro Steps CF set

issue.customFields.“Steps to Recreate”.value = replica.customKeys.“ReproSteps”

// Severity CF set

issue.customFields.“Severity”.value = replica.severity

Which fixed that issue,

only thing is that the html in the repro steps is not converted in the correct format

Any help with that, would be also awesome 😄
