Atlassian Rovo MCP Server is a cloud-hosted gateway that allows AI tools to securely access Jira, Compass, and Confluence Cloud data.
Torq enables quick and easy integration with Atlassian, so you can automate anything and everything within moments. Torq's public Atlassian Rovo MCP Server steps include:
List Tools
Generic Tool Call
Create Session
If you don't see a Step you need, you can create your own in various ways, such as using the Send an HTTP Request Step or Torq’s Step Builder, and share it across your organization.
Use Atlassian Rovo MCP Server steps in Torq
Enable API token authentication on Rovo MCP Server
API token authentication is disabled by default. Because OAuth allowlists do not apply to agents using API tokens, an org admin must explicitly enable this type of authentication for API tokens to be honored.
Open Atlassian Administration: Navigate to the Atlassian administration portal, select your organization, and go to Rovo > Rovo MCP server.
Enable API token authentication: Select the Authentication tab and click the Allow API token authentication toggle.
Create a service account in Atlassian
Navigate to Service accounts: Go to Directory > Service accounts.
Create a service account: Click Create a service account.
Enter a meaningful name and description.
Select the app roles the service account needs (e.g., Jira access).
Click Create. This will generate an email address based on the name you gave the service account.
The generated email address is only relevant for basic authentication in Torq.
Generate an API token in Atlassian
The token's scopes will determine which MCP tools will be available in Torq. Some tools (e.g., Compass) are disabled because the required scopes are not currently available when creating service account API keys. For Jira-focused Torq workflows, select at least the read:jira-work, write:jira-work, and read:jira-user scopes.
Create a token: In the service account you just created, click Create credentials.
Select API token.
Click Next.
Give the token a meaningful name.
Select an expiration date no longer than 365 days.
Click Next.
Select scopes to define what the token can do in Jira or Confluence. The scopes will determine which MCP tools will be available in Torq.
Review the token and click Create.
Copy the token: Copy the API token to save it for later—it cannot be recovered. You will need it to create the integration in Torq.
Create an Atlassian Rovo MCP Server steps integration in Torq
Navigate to the integration: In Torq, go to Build > Integrations > Steps > Atlassian Rovo MCP Server and click Add instance.
Configure the integration:
Enter a meaningful name for the integration instance.
Paste the API token you copied earlier.
Finalize: Click Add.
