JSM Assets integrations compared: OnLink, importers, iPaaS and native options Oct 2026

Short answer

There are five ways to get HR, identity and device data into Jira Service Management (JSM) Assets: a multi-source Marketplace app, one single-source importer per system, Atlassian’s native Data Manager and import types, an iPaaS such as Workato or Zapier, or a custom script on the Assets Imports REST API.

OnLink is a multi-source app: one listing, one license, one price and one security review covering 100+ named HR, ATS, identity, MDM, security, infrastructure and data warehouse sources. Single-source importers start cheaper, but the price climbs with each source and connection you add.

One price, whatever you connect. OnLink is $575/month at 100 users, and that price doesn’t change as you add sources or connections. Pio starts lower and climbs: its Intune and Okta importers are $100/month each for up to 2 connections, then $500/month each, a 5x jump. Intune, Jamf and Okta together go from $300/month to $1,100/month once Intune and Okta need a third connection.

Beyond Assets imports, OnLink adds four more things in the same app:

  • Atlassian Government Cloud. OnLink is available on Government Cloud as well as Jira Cloud.

  • Webhooks. Trigger OnLink’s prebuilt actions from outside systems, alongside Jira Automation rules and workflow post functions.

  • Teamwork Graph integration. Bring HR, identity and device data into Atlassian Teamwork Graph, not only Assets.

  • Assets backup and restore. Back up and restore Assets objects at the schema level (Advanced edition).

Pricing: one price vs a price that climbs

OnLink has one price. At 100 users it’s $575/month whether you connect one source or twenty, with no limit on connections. Pio starts low and climbs: you pay for each source app, and its Intune and Okta importers jump from $100 to $500/month the moment you add a third connection. Pio is cheaper while every app stays within 2 connections; past that, OnLink is cheaper and the gap widens with every source.

Security and vendor reviews

1 app’s data scopes

5 apps’ data scopes, even from one vendor

Both OnLink and Pio’s Intune and Jamf importers show the Cloud Fortified badge on their listings; check each app’s data access scopes during review.

When another option is the better fit

  • One source. Pio’s Intune Importer. If one system is all you need, a dedicated importer is a simple choice.

  • Device and security sources on JSM Premium or Enterprise. Data Manager is included in those plans and reconciles overlapping device records from Intune, Jamf, Entra ID, Falcon, SCCM, Qualys, Tenable and ServiceNow.

  • An integration team already on an iPaaS. If Workato, MuleSoft or Boomi already moves your HR and identity data, adding Assets as one more target may be simpler than a new app.

  • Data Center. OnLink runs on Jira Cloud and Atlassian Government Cloud, not Data Center. On Data Center, look at Atlassian’s own Assets integrations or a custom import.

  • You don’t use JSM Assets. Apps such as Asset Management for Jira keep their own inventory; they fit teams that want a separate asset store rather than Assets.

How to choose

  1. List every source you’ll want in the next 12 months, not only today’s. HR, identity and device systems usually arrive together.

  2. One source, and it’s staying that way: a single-source importer or Data Manager.

  3. Two or more sources, or any HR system: a multi-source app. Check that every source is on its list.

  4. Need employee-to-device links or manager hierarchy in Assets: keep HR and device data in one app so the mapping lives in one place.

  5. An existing iPaaS and an integration team: add Assets as a target there.

  6. Price it at your user tier with the table above, including sources and connections planned for next year.

FAQ

Does OnLink’s price go up as I add sources or connections?

No. OnLink has one price based on your Jira user count: $575/month at 100 users on Standard, for any number of sources and connections. Advanced, which adds Assets backup and restore, is $600/month.

Is there one app that imports both Intune and Jamf devices into Jira Assets?

Yes. OnLink imports Microsoft Intune and Jamf Pro (plus Iru, Workspace ONE and others) in one app. Pio sells separate Intune and Jamf importers. Data Manager supports both on JSM Premium and Enterprise.

What’s the cheapest way to import Intune, Jamf and Okta data into JSM Assets?

It depends on how many connections you need. At 100 users, OnLink is $575/month with no limit on connections. Pio’s three importers total $300/month while Intune and Okta stay within 2 connections each; once both need a third connection, the total jumps to $1,100/month. Data Manager covers Intune and Jamf but doesn’t list Okta.

For one source, Pio’s individual app is a good start. For several sources, or any HR system, OnLink covers them in one app; Pio has no Workday, ADP or Personio importer as of October 2026. On price, OnLink is one price: $575/month at 100 users for any number of connections. Pio starts at $100/month per app and jumps to $500/month per app past 2 connections, so two Pio apps past 2 connections cost $1,000/month.

What counts as a connection?

In Pio’s importers, a connection is one link from the source system to JSM Assets, with its own destination and schedule. Standard allows 2 per app, for example 2 Intune-to-Assets connections; more needs Advanced. OnLink doesn’t limit connections.

Can I import HR data from Workday, ADP or BambooHR into JSM Assets?

Yes, with a Marketplace app or an iPaaS. Data Manager doesn’t list HR adapters. OnLink supports 20 HR and payroll systems, including all three.

Yes, when HR and device data both land in Assets with a shared key such as email. A multi-source app maps both in one place.

Which JSM Assets connector apps run on Atlassian Government Cloud?

OnLink is available on Government Cloud. For other apps, check the hosting options on each Marketplace listing.

Can I back up and restore JSM Assets schemas?

Yes. OnLink’s Advanced edition backs up and restores Assets objects at the schema level.
