🤓 Who can do this? You will need to be an admin in Atlan to configure the Jira Cloud integration. You will also need inputs and approval from an administrator of your Jira Cloud workspace.
To integrate Jira Cloud and Atlan, follow these steps.

To connect Atlan to Jira Cloud from within Atlan:
- From the left menu, click Admin.
