### User connections

The first time users interact with the app, they will be automatically required to connect their Slack account with their Jira account to establish connectivity and permissions in Jira.

- Your **password is never shared** with our systems
- Every action you take in Slack (create, comment) will be attributed to your Jira account.
- Your **permissions** are based on your** Jira access**.

You will be asked to connect your account when performing your first action in Slack. You can also manually trigger the connection by typing `/jira-plus connect`. 

1. Click **Connect Now** in Slack.
2. Click **Allow** in Jira.
3. Click the button to go to the home screen in Slack.
