    hey @jrecinos-applaudo i just added a jira integration following the step u described, im not able to reproduce this issue on my end.

    but when i added a jira connection with the mcp url you provided (https://mcp.atlassian.com/v1/mcp/authv2), the same error came up for oauth. removing the authv2 at the end works fine (i.e. https://mcp.atlassian.com/v1/mcp/), could u try this and see if it works for u?


    edit:
    actually i think an fix is needed.

    executor's OAuth client metadata only advertizes authorization_code, but atlassian's /authv2 flow requested offline_access (permission to obtain refresh tokens).

    and atlassian rejected this mismatch and showed Client is not allowed to use offline_access scope.
