Integrations help QA and engineering collaborate while keeping Hawzu as the testing record.
Use All Projects only when the same external tool and destination should be available across the workspace.
Use Selected Projects when teams use different Jira projects, repositories, Linear teams, Slack channels, or work item destinations.
Masked fields in the edit flow mean existing sensitive values are kept unless you enter a replacement.
Issue creation defaults should route Hawzu defects to the right external destination:
Review defaults when teams reorganize.
Start with defect creation and status update notifications. Turn on optional notifications only when the channel needs that detail.
Too many notifications can hide important signals.
Hawzu can create, link, show, open, and unlink external issue references where supported by the visible UI.
Do not assume external tools overwrite Hawzu data or that every field mirrors automatically.
