# GitLab JIRA integration
GitLab can be configured to interact with JIRA. Configuration happens via
user name and password. Connecting to a JIRA server via CAS is not possible.
GitLab can be configured to interact with [JIRA], a project management platform.
Each project can be configured to connect to a different JIRA instance, see the
[configuration](#configuration) section. If you have one JIRA instance you can
pre-fill the settings page with a default template. To configure the template
see the [Services Templates][services-templates] document.
Once your GitLab project is connected to JIRA, you can reference and close the
issues in JIRA directly from GitLab.
