> [!IMPORTANT]
> ***As of Flowpipe 1.0.0, `credential` has been renamed to `connection`.  The `jira` credential resource is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of Flowpipe. Use the [jira connection](/docs/reference/config-files/connection/jira) instead.***

The `jira` credential can be used to access Jira resources.

```hcl
credential "jira" "jira_creds" {
   api_token = "ATATT3S........................."
   base_url  = "https://test.atlassian.net/"
   username  = "test@abbb.com"
}
```

## Arguments

| Name            | Type    | Required?| Description
|-----------------|---------|----------|-------------------
| `api_token`     |  String | Optional | API access token
| `base_url`      |  String | Optional | The Base Url of your Jira API instance
| `username`      |  String | Optional | The user name to access the Jira cloud instance

All arguments are optional, and a `jira` credential with no arguments will behave the same as the [default credential](#default-credential).

## Default Credential

The `jira` credential type includes an implicit, default credential (`credential.jira.default`) that will be configured using the environment variables `JIRA_API_TOKEN` (or `JIRA_TOKEN`), `JIRA_URL`, and `JIRA_USER`.

```hcl
credential "jira" "default" {
   api_token = env("JIRA_API_TOKEN")
   base_url  = env("JIRA_URL")
   username  = env("JIRA_USER")
}
```
