Jira Service Management MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Jira Service Management and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 74 Jira Service Management actions (44 reads, 19 writes and 11 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Jira Service Management credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Jira Service Management's limits and records every call. Connecting Jira Service Management needs your own Jira Service Management OAuth app and one admin sign-in.

100,000 free calls a month. No card, no email, no password: press Start a free sandbox on the next screen and keep the key it shows you.

Set up

Connect Jira Service Management in three steps.

  1. 01

    Add actionlake to Claude.

    Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.

    https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp
  2. 02

    Connect Jira Service Management.

    OAuth 2.0, authorization code with PKCE. You register your own OAuth app with Jira Service Management, an admin signs in once, and you paste the app's client id and secret and the tokens from that sign-in; actionlake renews the access token from then on. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.

    Before the first sign-in, Jira Service Management needs an OAuth app of your own, registered in its developer portal. actionlake has no Jira Service Management app to lend you.

    Make the first call. Check before a write.

Atlassian's own MCP server

Atlassian's MCP server, or actionlake?

Atlassian runs the Rovo MCP server for Jira, Jira Service Management and Confluence at mcp.atlassian.com, signed in with OAuth 2.1 or an API token. Its calls use Rovo credits from the organisation's pool.

Use Atlassian's server when one person wants to work in Jira Service Management from their own AI client. Use actionlake when you also want Jira Service Management behind the same endpoint as your other systems: a key per agent with allowed actions and a spending cap, a named person's approval before destructive actions, a sealed record of every call, and one ask across Jira Service Management and another system.

Top actions

The Jira Service Management API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 49 of Jira Service Management's 52 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

The plan store

Ready-made plans for Jira Service Management.

6 plans in the store. Install one and your agent runs it by name; the reply says which connections are still missing. A schedule can run a plan on a timetable. There are no triggers or webhooks, by design.

Governance for Jira Service Management

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

11 Jira Service Management actions are destructive. These are all of them:

  • Remove users from an organizationjira_sm.organization_users.delete
  • Remove customers from a service deskjira_sm.servicedesk_customers.delete
  • Delete an organizationjira_sm.organizations.delete
  • Detach an organization from a service deskjira_sm.servicedesk_organizations.delete
  • Revoke a customer's portal-only accessjira_sm.customers.revoke_portal_access
  • Delete a request typejira_sm.request_types.delete
  • Remove participants from a requestjira_sm.request_participants.delete
  • Unsubscribe from a request's notificationsjira_sm.request_notifications.unsubscribe
  • Delete customer feedback on a requestjira_sm.request_feedback.delete
  • Delete an organization propertyjira_sm.organization_properties.delete
  • Delete a request type propertyjira_sm.request_type_properties.delete

A destructive action runs only with confirm: true. Under the human policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

Questions

The Jira Service Management MCP server, answered.

Is there a Jira Service Management MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 74 Jira Service Management actions across customers, ITSM, catalogue and approvals, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Atlassian.

Does Atlassian have its own MCP server?

Atlassian runs the Rovo MCP server for Jira, Jira Service Management and Confluence at mcp.atlassian.com, signed in with OAuth 2.1 or an API token. Its calls use Rovo credits from the organisation's pool. (Atlassian's documentation, checked 22 October 2026.) Use Atlassian's server when one person wants to work in Jira Service Management from their own AI client. Use actionlake when you also want Jira Service Management behind the same endpoint as your other systems: a key per agent with allowed actions and a spending cap, a named person's approval before destructive actions, a sealed record of every call, and one ask across Jira Service Management and another system.

What do I need to connect Jira Service Management?

Your own Jira Service Management OAuth app, registered with Jira Service Management (its client id and client secret), and the access and refresh tokens from one admin sign-in. actionlake has no Jira Service Management app of its own, so this is not a one-step consent. actionlake renews the access token as it expires. actionlake finds cloud id, site url and the organisations, sites or workspaces the credential can reach for you when you connect. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "jira_sm" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in Jira Service Management?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 11 Jira Service Management actions are destructive, including remove users from an organization, remove customers from a service desk and delete an organization. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

Will an AI agent use up my Jira Service Management API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Jira Service Management service file: 100 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (44 Jira Service Management actions can be), which never reaches Jira Service Management.

What does a Jira Service Management action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (46 Jira Service Management actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Jira Service Management refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

Which Jira Service Management API does it cover?

The Jira Service Management API 1 at api.atlassian.com/ex/jira, under your cloud id. It is built from Jira Service Management's documentation as read on 15 September 2026. 74 actions in 11 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 2.0.0).

Can I combine Jira Service Management with my other systems?

Yes. ask joins Jira Service Management to ConnectWise PSA or NetSuite on the same customer and returns the answer rather than every row. Jira Service Management maps crm.company, which 227 other connectors also map.

Does actionlake keep my Jira Service Management data, and where?

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to an hour, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Jira Service Management credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

Which AI clients can use it?

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
