| 21 | ## Quick Start |
| 22 | |
| 23 | ### 1. Get Your API Token |
| 24 | |
| 25 | Go to https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens and create a token. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | > For Server/Data Center, use a Personal Access Token instead. See [Authentication](https://mcp-atlassian.soomiles.com/docs/authentication). |
| 28 | |
| 29 | ### 2. Configure Your IDE |
| 30 | |
| 31 | Add to your Claude Desktop or Cursor MCP configuration: |
| 32 | |
| 33 | ```json |
| 34 | { |
| 35 | "mcpServers": { |
| 36 | "mcp-atlassian": { |
| 37 | "command": "uvx", |
| 38 | "args": ["mcp-atlassian"], |
| 39 | "env": { |
| 40 | "JIRA_URL": "https://your-company.atlassian.net", |
| 41 | "JIRA_USERNAME": "your.email@company.com", |
| 42 | "JIRA_API_TOKEN": "your_api_token", |
| 43 | "CONFLUENCE_URL": "https://your-company.atlassian.net/wiki", |
| 44 | "CONFLUENCE_USERNAME": "your.email@company.com", |
| 45 | "CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN": "your_api_token" |
| 46 | } |
| 47 | } |
| 48 | } |
| 49 | } |
| 50 | ``` |
| 51 | |
| 52 | > **Server/Data Center users**: Use `JIRA_PERSONAL_TOKEN` instead of `JIRA_USERNAME` + `JIRA_API_TOKEN`. See [Authentication](https://mcp-atlassian.soomiles.com/docs/authentication) for details. |
| 53 | |
| 54 | #### Autohand Code |
| 55 | |
| 56 | Use the same `uvx` server with your Atlassian credentials: |
| 57 | |
| 58 | ```bash |
| 59 | autohand mcp add mcp-atlassian env \ |
| 60 | JIRA_URL=https://your-company.atlassian.net \ |
| 61 | JIRA_USERNAME=your.email@company.com \ |
| 62 | JIRA_API_TOKEN=your_api_token \ |
| 63 | CONFLUENCE_URL=https://your-company.atlassian.net/wiki \ |
| 64 | CONFLUENCE_USERNAME=your.email@company.com \ |
| 65 | CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN=your_api_token \ |
| 66 | uvx mcp-atlassian |
| 67 | ``` |
| 68 | |
| 69 | Add `--scope project` after `add` to keep the configuration in the current |
| 70 | project. See [Autohand Code](https://github.com/autohandai/code-cli/) for current |
| 71 | installation and CLI details. |
| 72 | |
| 73 | ### 3. Start Using |
| 74 | |
| 75 | Ask your AI assistant to: |
| 76 | - **"Find issues assigned to me in PROJ project"** |
| 77 | - **"Search Confluence for onboarding docs"** |
| 78 | - **"Create a bug ticket for the login issue"** |
| 79 | - **"Update the status of PROJ-123 to Done"** |
| 80 | |
