What to know

• Service accounts help prevent potential issues when connecting to a specific employee account.

• Users Jira permissions are automatically respected by Jira Integration+

• Service accounts can be used to limit access to the main user via Jira configuration. The main user is the user who initially connected your bot in Slack to your Jira instance.

• There are also settings you can use to limit access via configuration.

Note: Atlassian sometimes makes other users re-auth if the "main" user is changed. It has to do with how the OAuth keys work with the APIs and not something we can control. If your instance acts this way then users will be asked to re-auth on their next action.
