## Configuration
You can configure the server using the setup script, a configuration file, or environment variables.
### Using the setup script (recommended)
Run the setup script to create your configuration file:
```bash
npx atlassian-mcp-setup
```
Or if installed locally:
```bash
npm run setup
```
The script will guide you through the configuration process and create a `config.json` file in the `config` directory.
### Using a configuration file manually
1. Create a `config.json` file in the `config` directory (you can copy from `config.sample.json`)
2. Fill in your Atlassian details:
```json
{
"atlassian": {
"baseUrl": "https://your-instance.atlassian.net",
"email": "your-email@example.com",
"token": "your-api-token-here"
},
"server": {
"name": "atlassian-server",
"version": "0.1.0"
}
}
```
### Using environment variables
Set the following environment variables:
- `ATLASSIAN_BASE_URL`: Your Atlassian instance URL (e.g., `https://your-instance.atlassian.net`)
- `ATLASSIAN_EMAIL`: Your Atlassian account email
- `ATLASSIAN_TOKEN`: Your Atlassian API token
- `ATLASSIAN_CONFIG_PATH`: (Optional) Path to a custom config file location
## Getting an Atlassian API Token
1. Log in to your Atlassian account at https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens
2. Click "Create API token"
3. Give your token a name (e.g., "MCP Server")
4. Copy the generated token (you won't be able to see it again)
## Usage
### Running the server
```bash
atlassian-mcp-server
```
Or if installed from source:
```bash
npm start
