+### Getting a transition ID
+
+In the most recent JIRA UI, you can no longer see transition IDs in the workflow
+administration UI. You can get the ID you need in either of the following ways:
+
+1. By using the API, with a request like `https://yourcompany.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/issue/ISSUE-123/transitions`
+   using an issue that is in the appropriate "open" state
+1. By mousing over the link for the transition you want and looking for the
+   "action" parameter in the URL
+
+Note that the transition ID may vary between workflows (e.g., bug vs. story),
+even if the status you are changing to is the same.
 
 After saving the configuration, your GitLab project will be able to interact
 with all JIRA projects in your JIRA instance and you'll see the JIRA link on the GitLab project pages that takes you to the appropriate JIRA project.
