API key

Uses your own credential — Verslay stores it encrypted

Connectable today
  1. 1
    Sign in to Jira
    Open https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira and sign in to the account you want to connect.
  2. 2
    Create the API key
    Generate a new API key from the API or developer settings in your Jira dashboard.
  3. 3
    Copy it immediately
    Jira usually shows the full API key only once, right after you create it. Store it somewhere safe before closing the page.
  4. 4
    Connect in Verslay
    In the Verslay Hub, open Connections, find Jira, and paste the API key into the Your Subdomain field.
  5. 5
    Verify
    The connection flips to Connected. Run any read-only action once to confirm the credential has the right scopes.
  6. 6
    Rotate safely
    When you rotate later: connect the new credential first, confirm it works, then revoke the old one.

What you’ll paste into Verslay

Your Subdomain

The part of your Jira web address before .atlassian.net — e.g. 'acme' for acme.atlassian.net. Open Jira and copy it from your browser's address bar.

required
Base Encode (Deprecated)

Deprecated — leave this blank. Composio builds it automatically from your email and API token above. Only fill if instructed, using the Base64 of 'email:api-token'.

optional · secret
API Key (Required)

An Atlassian API token — it acts as your password. Create one at id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens and copy it right away; it's shown only once.

optional · secret
Jira Email (Required)

The email you sign in to Jira/Atlassian with (e.g. jane@acme.com). It must match the account that created the API token below.

optional

Connect Jira once — every agent can use it

Verslay agents share your connections. Connect Jira in the Hub and every use-case that needs it lights up — no per-agent setup.
