# About PlanApply for Jira

PlanApply for Jira Cloud is an app that allows you to create **configuration as a code** powered by Terraform. The name is coming from the two most important actions that you can perform in Terraform: Plan and Apply.

For Plan operation you can utilise two ways of working:

* with a plain code, using Terraform language (accessible only to admins, as it requires basic Terraform knowledge and might not be handy for business users)
* with an interactive diagram, powered by Reactflow, that helps you visualize, describe and link all relations you need to speed up thought-to-plan conversion (designed to be used by everyone)

Apply is a risky operation, so it's only available to admins! To help admins in the process of transformation from plan to deployment, there a few features:

* Plans created with interactive diagrams can be transformed from visual form into Terraform code.
* You can utilize terraform commands to verify written configuration before applying it to environment
* You can use AI assistant to suggest configuration fragments by a prompt
