Customization options

Here are all the available options for Trello and Jira:

• Filter synced work items: Unito will sync all items by default but you can customize your workflow by syncing just some of them. 
• Filter by Issue Type: Choose exactly which issue types sync from Jira.
• Include Subtasks: Enable seamless syncing of subtasks between Trello and Jira.
• Custom Field Syncing: Custom field types can be mapped to one another, not just similar types.
• One-Way Syncing: Change flow direction to sync updates from Trello to Jira, or from Jira to Trello – your choice! 
• Map Users for Accuracy: Ensure tasks are assigned to the correct people by mapping your Jira and Trello users together.
• Sync Closed Items: While Unito syncs open items automatically, you can also include closed items created before your workflow setup.

• Choose Default Jira Issue Type: Control what issue type is used when new tasks originate in Trello.
