To connect your Infobip account with Jira Service Management follow the next steps:
Go to Manage your apps section and click Configuration

It is not possible to add a channel and phone number manually. Every time your company buys a new number, you should sync it with a click on the Sync activated numbers button.
Broadcast your first message
To start an interactive conversation with the customers, you need a 2-way enabled number. Click on Sync activated numbers to get all numbers and communication channels activated for your Infobip account. After phone numbers are visible on the configuration page, you must add a default project and a default request.
Shared number
If you use a shared number you can send the broadcast messages only to your verified SMS number.
Buy a number
If you have bought a new number or configured a new communication channel, use the Sync activated numbers to update your account.

When a new customer creates a request via Infobip omnichannel, it has the default issue type.
