1. You need to download the latest client version from this page. For example, you can click on the atlassian-cli-9.1.0-distribution.zip to download the latest client version v9.1.0. (which is the latest at the time of writing this document).
2. Once the file is downloaded, extract the files. For example, you can right-click on the downloaded file and click on Extract Files... as shown in the below screenshot. Here, we have used the 7-Zip software.
   
3. Go to the ACLI folder (Ex: atlassian-cli-9.1.0)
4. Rename the acli-server file to acli as shown in the below screenshot.

      language actionscript3 theme Midnight
      credentials = --user automation --password automation

      
      

   2. If you want to execute the CLI action for confluence, then commentmyjiraoption and give the Confluence URL detail of your instance.
      

      Code Block
      language actionscript3 theme Midnight
      myjira = jira -s https://jira.examplegear.com ${credentials} #myconfluence = confluence -s https://confluence.examplegear.com ${credentials}

      
      

   3. This defines the default client for actions, choose either Jira / Confluence based on where you want to execute CLI actions.

      language actionscript3 theme Midnight
      default = ${myjira}
