{% endstep %}

### See Jira data in your "Violet References" workspace

In Smartsheet, a **Violet References** workspace and a **Jira** reference sheet will automatically be created.

Violet will use the Jira reference sheet to continuously push updates about your Jira data to Smartsheet.

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Next, you can use Smartsheet formulas like INDEX and MATCH to auto-fill your Jira data in other sheets.
