_Originally asked by Agustin Reta on 10 February 2022 [(original question)](https://oldcommunity.exalate.com/questions/42832507)_

* * *

I have a connection between Jira Software Cloud and Azure DevOps. In Jira I have only one Jira project (Management project) with a lot of issues (issue type = project) inside of it. On the other hand, in Azure DevOps I have a lot of projects.

I need to sync projects (my Jira issues) and epics between Jira with Azure DevOps projects and epics. When I create a new project (issue with issue type = project) with some epics inside of it, I need to create in Azure DevOps a project with an epic inside of it.

The problem is that I cannot automate the connections between the new Jira project (issues) and Azure DevOps new project and I don´t know how to do it. Maybe you´re able to imagine another idea to do what I need.

_Answer by Francis Martens (Exalate) on 11 February 2022_

We have multiproject support on the backlog, and the whole use case can then be captured in a single connection

What I can advise now is to create these 25 connections (as scripted connection) and copy paste the configuration on the different connections.
