Our dev team uses Jira for our user stories. However, our clients don't have access to our Jira account. I am looking for a bug tracking tool that the clients can access and can sync/push the bugs they log into Jira. Does such a tool exist?
I found a good option with the tool ReqTest. Looks like there is a plugin for Jira that allows you to sync issues.
I'm working on POC for integrating JIRA board / issue / story into my application.
Front-end is Angular and back-end uses JAVA (Spring MVC). JIRA is hosted on-premise.
I was searching in the JIRA developer page, but it is bit confusing which to use.
I want to know about following things usage.
JIRA Java Rest client
JIRA Agile Rest API
JIRA Maven dependency
Kindly help me understand the JIRA library.
If you ask me to choose between JIRA Java Rest Client (JRJC), I don't see many updates on that section and if you find any issues then you might have to spend time in finding alternative ways to resolve that problem.
If you look at JIRA Agile REST APIs, these should be the best of the possible options that one can opt for amongst the available options (the same that you've listed in your own question). If you choose to opt JIRA REST APIs over the other options, then any issue that you face might be handled either by the JIRA Atlassian Documentation or the Atlassian Developer community (who are always ready to provide solutions to the best of their knowledge).

What dependency do we need to add for JIRA Maven integration?
Hope this helps in making your own decisions. If you need further assistance, please do let me know!
Atlassian Stride is aiming to forcefully replace HipChat product. However, its current version (1.8.18) lacks out of the box the integration with self-hosted Jira and Confluence as they were in HipChat (though having a way to integrate with Jira Cloud & Confluence Cloud). That is crucial to us and I believe for many other new Stride users who were moved from HipChat recently.
Atlassian support tells the official feature should appear soon, but doesn't name any specific dates:

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/STRIDE-565 and more
We also checked Zapier, but haven't find anything related. Are there any alternative ways to connect servers of Jira and Confluence with Stride to feed the chat with updates, except writing our own app or waiting for Stride update?
Stride has released a plugin for Jira Cloud that provides a nice integration between Jira Cloud and Stride which is now available and there is also a Jira Server plugin from Atlassian that provides a basic integration for Jira Server. For those looking to do more there is a 3rd party integration that provides deeper integration for both Server and Cloud.
Jira Server: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1218852/
Jira Cloud: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1217873/jira-cloud-for-stride.
Jira Integration+ (paid): https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1219096/integration-for-jira-and-stride
You could use Microsoft Flow and it's amazing available template to connect it and set it up as you want. https://asia.flow.microsoft.com/en-us/
I was looking around for some time, but couldn' t find a free add-on to manage test cases, test plans et scenarios ect.
Do you know any who is free that can be installed on a Jira cloud solution ? or should i create my own custom Jira project for it, if there is no free one
Thanks
You could try the TestFLO app - it's available for both Server and Cloud instances of Jira. Not fully free, but at least you've got a free trial :) You can find it on Atlassian Marketplace, just like any app for Jira.
i am actually analyzing JIRA for my company regarding the functionalities and the different APIs. At the Atlassian Homepage i found two official provided APIs (JAVA API or JIRA REST API).
My further intentions are to program an interface between my stand-alone application and JIRA. The idea is for instance to control the user-management (add, delete, modify user, etc.), project-management (create project, delete, etc.) and other things from this application. Therefore i need a way to interact with JIRA.
Normally i would avoid the REST API and prefer the JAVA API, because other interfaces are even managed by the JAVA API, but i can't find any examples for connecting, adding or modifying workItems in JIRA. I have just found the java api documentation.

Would you suggest only the JAVA REST API or are there any good examples for the JAVA API?
Thanks a lot!
It really depends on what you are trying to achieve. The Java API is mostly used to build Jira plugins, while the REST API is used when you want to integrate external applications.
In your case the normal choice would be the REST API.
