ACLI offers several advantages that make it a powerful addition to your toolset:

### **Perform tasks at scale**

Execute large volumes of commands directly from your terminal to manage instances quickly and consistently.

### **Streamline integration, automation, and migration**

Manage all your integration and automation needs from a single platform.

Simplify migration processes across tools and systems with consistent command syntax.

### **Integrate your entire toolset**

Synchronize actions across instances, third-party tools, and data sources.

Connect applications like databases, Slack, and other external systems with ease.

### **Automate repetitive tasks**

Minimize time spent on maintenance and user management.

Standardize scalable workflows using simple command-line instructions.

### **Consolidate and migrate data efficiently**

Use fast, plain-text-based commands to import and export data across applications, databases, and files.

## Capabilities and clients

ACLI organizes its functions into *clients*, which group capabilities by app. Each client focuses on a specific environment—such as Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, or Slack—and includes a complete set of related automation features.

Refer to the CLI documentation for each client for detailed command references and examples.
