Set up the Atlassian Rovo MCP server

Atlassian's Rovo MCP server gives AI agents access to Jira, Confluence, and Compass — searching issues, reading and creating pages, creating and updating tickets, and running cross-product searches. This guide walks through adding MintMCP to your Atlassian organization's domain allowlist and approving the server in MintMCP.

Prerequisites​

  • A MintMCP admin account
  • An Atlassian Cloud organization with at least one of: Jira, Confluence, or Compass
  • Organization admin access in admin.atlassian.com

Add MintMCP to your Atlassian allowlist​

Atlassian's MCP server uses a domain allowlist to control which AI tools can connect to your organization. Add MintMCP's domain so Atlassian accepts OAuth connections from it.

  1. Go to admin.atlassian.com and select your organization.
  2. In the left sidebar, go to Apps > AI settings > Rovo MCP server.
  3. Under Allowed domains, click Add domain.
  4. Enter app.mintmcp.com and save.

No OAuth app registration or client credentials are needed — Atlassian handles client registration automatically for allowlisted domains.

Approve Atlassian Rovo in MintMCP​

Atlassian Rovo is pre-listed as a recommended server in the MintMCP MCP store.

  1. In MintMCP, go to MCP store > Manage store.
  2. Find Atlassian Rovo in the recommended servers list.
  3. Click Approve.

Each team member authenticates with their own Atlassian account on first use, so all tool calls are tied to their individual permissions.

Security considerations​

  • Each user authenticates individually — Jira issues, Confluence pages, and Compass components are only accessible based on that user's existing Atlassian permissions.
  • Removing MintMCP from the allowed domains list immediately revokes OAuth access for all users.
  • If your organization has an IP allowlist configured in Atlassian, ensure MintMCP's egress IPs are included.
