Actions are the doers of your rule. They allow you to automate tasks and make changes within your site, and can perform many tasks, such as editing an issue, commenting on an issue, or triggering a Jenkins build:

Trigger a build of one or more Jenkins jobs. You can trigger a specific job, use smart-values to look up the job(s) to trigger, or trigger jobs related to the issue in scope of the rule. Build parameters are also supported, either specify the specific parameters, this supports smart-values, or use the parameter issue fields feature.
