Configuring an OAuth Service Provider in JIRA

An OAuth 'service provider' is an application that shares ('provides') data to another application. Most service providers (including all OAuth-enabled Atlassian applications) will only require you to enter the consumer information for your JIRA instance to accept it as a 'consumer'. However, some service providers may require your JIRA instance to use a 'consumer key' and 'shared secret' to access information. If so, you will need to add this information into JIRA before your JIRA instance will be accepted as a consumer by the service provider.

Please see the information below for instructions on adding and removing OAuth service providers. Additional information is also available in our Gadgets and Dashboards documentation.

6. Enter the service provider's details (these fields should all be provided by the service provider):
   1. 'Service Provider Name' — Type the name of the service provider, i.e. the application whose data JIRA will be accessing.
   2. 'Consumer Key' — Type the key assigned to JIRA by the service provider.
   3. 'Shared Secret' — Type the consumer secret assigned to JIRA by the service provider. This secret is used to digitally sign all request tokens sent from JIRA (as a consumer) to the service provider. Keep this information confidential to you and your service provider only.
   4. 'Description' (optional) — Type a longer description if you wish.
