FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I connect Jira Service Management to Claude?
In Elaichi, choose Jira Service Management from the connector catalog and click connect. Jira Service Management opens its own Atlassian sign-in page, you sign in as yourself and approve access, and there is no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp as the endpoint.
Does Jira Service Management work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Once Jira Service Management is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any MCP client and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Jira Service Management once and every client uses it.
What can an AI agent actually do with my Jira Service Management data?
With this connector an agent can look up service desks, queues and projects in Jira Service Management, search requests, read a request with its comments, and download attachments such as screenshots and log files. It can also list customer organizations, the users in them and the agents on a service desk. That means you can ask what is in a queue, what a customer has open or what was said on a request, and get an answer from live Jira Service Management records.
Does connecting Jira Service Management give the AI every project and service desk?
No. The agent works inside the access of the person who signed in to Jira Service Management, so it only sees the service desks, queues and requests that person can already see. Elaichi can narrow that further, for example to a single service desk, but it can never widen it beyond what Jira Service Management itself allows.
Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Jira Service Management?
Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi are set per action, so you decide exactly which Jira Service Management actions a team can use, for example allowing agents to read requests and comments but not download attachments. A blocked action is never shown to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor at all, so no prompt can reach it.
What happens to a Jira Service Management connection when someone leaves?
When a person is offboarded in Elaichi, their access to Jira Service Management through every AI client ends at once. A Jira Service Management connection shared with a team keeps working for everyone else on it. If you want to remove Jira Service Management entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and every other client together.
