Log in to your Jira account
Go to your Jira instance and log in with your Atlassian credentials.

Create a Personal Access Token

• Follow the official Jira guide here: Using Personal Access Tokens.
• After logging in, navigate to your Atlassian account settings.
• Locate the section for "Personal Access Tokens."
• Click “Create token,” provide a label, and select an expiry (if prompted).
• Copy the generated token—this will not be shown again.

Format your Personal Access Token

• The value must be in the following format:

  your_email@example.com:your_personal_jira_access_token
  

  Replace your_email@example.com with your Jira login email, and replace your_personal_jira_access_token with the token from the previous step.

Find your Jira Base URL

• This is the URL you use to access your Jira instance, e.g., https://company.atlassian.net or your self-hosted Jira URL.

Add the values in the FastMCP connection interface

• In the FastMCP interface, click the "Install Now" button for the Jira MCP Server.
• When prompted, fill in the following ENV values:
  • JIRA_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN: The formatted email and token string (from Step 3).
  • JIRA_BASE_URL: Your Jira instance URL (from Step 4).

Finish the setup

• Save or confirm your configuration in FastMCP.
• Your integration with Jira is now ready to use!
