Atlassian MCP connector for Manus

Turn Jira tickets and Confluence pages into finished work

Manus is an independent AI agent that reads and updates Jira and Confluence with your own Atlassian account. It isn’t an Atlassian feature: it connects through Atlassian’s official MCP server and only sees what your account can open.

A Jira AI agent for ticket triage

Use Manus as AI for Jira: it reads new tickets, fills in what’s missing and, when you ask it to show the changes first, updates each one after you’ve checked them.

AI Jira ticket triage for new issues

Manus reads each new ticket, rewrites unclear descriptions, suggests labels, a priority and an assignee, and flags likely duplicates.

Keep a Confluence status page up to date from Jira

Manus reads the epics in a project and updates the status table on an existing page, so nobody copies it by hand.

Questions about the Atlassian MCP connector

How do I connect Jira and Confluence to Manus?

Open Connectors in Manus, select Atlassian and sign in with your Atlassian account, then approve access on the consent screen. One connection covers Jira and Confluence. After that, mention either app in a task, for example with a ticket key or a page link.

Is this the official Atlassian MCP server?

Yes. The Atlassian connector in Manus uses Atlassian’s own remote MCP server, which Atlassian calls the Atlassian Rovo MCP Server. You don’t set up a Jira MCP server or a Confluence MCP server yourself. Manus is a separate AI agent and isn’t part of Rovo.

Is Manus an Atlassian AI agent?

Manus is an independent AI agent, not the Jira or Confluence AI that Atlassian builds in. Once connected, it works in Jira and Confluence with your own account: it reads tickets and pages and makes the changes you ask for.

What can Manus see and change in Jira and Confluence?

Only what your Atlassian account can already open and edit. Atlassian checks your existing permissions on every action, and your admin can turn read, write or search access off for each app.

Can I disconnect Atlassian from Manus?

Yes. Open Connectors in Manus, select Atlassian and choose Disconnect. You can connect again at any time by signing in.

Why do I see “Your organization admin must authorize access”?

Your Atlassian admin has limited which apps can connect. Manus’s address is on Atlassian’s default allowed list, so if your admin turned that list off, they need to add https://manus.im/api/webhook/mcp/callback in Atlassian Administration under Rovo, then Rovo MCP server. Your organization’s IP allowlist also still applies.

Does Manus ask before it changes a Jira ticket?

There’s no separate approval step for Jira or Confluence changes. If you want to check first, ask Manus to show the changes and wait for your OK, as the examples on this page do. Deleting Jira issues is off by default until your Atlassian admin turns it on.

Does using Jira through Manus use Rovo credits?

It can. Atlassian says requests that AI tools make through its MCP server can use Rovo credits from your organization’s shared pool. Check Atlassian’s Rovo usage limits for your plan.

My team uses Linear. Is there a connector for that too?

Yes. Manus has a separate Linear connector for triaging issues and writing project reports, with its own page in the links above. Teams that use both can turn on both connectors in the same task.
