Jira and Confluence connect separately, so check the specific product you’re fixing in Settings → Applications.

Connection states

Neo shows where you are in the connect flow:
  • Not connected: you haven’t authorized Atlassian yet, or you disconnected. Select the product and click Authorize to start.
  • Awaiting install: you authorized, but the app isn’t installed on a site yet. Click Install and approve it in Atlassian.
  • Connected: Neo is live and responds to @neo.

It still says “Awaiting install” after I installed

The install takes a moment to reach Neo, and the status updates on its own.
  • Wait a minute or two, and it switches to Connected automatically.
  • Confirm you installed on the same site you meant to connect.

I reconnected but had to install again

The app was fully uninstalled from Atlassian, so reconnecting needs a reinstall.
  • If the app is still installed, Reconnect only needs the Authorize step.
  • If it was uninstalled, authorize and install again.

It connected to the wrong site

Your Atlassian account can access more than one site.
  • If Neo asks, pick the right site in the Choose a site step.
  • To move later, just install Neo on the site you want, and it becomes the connected one.

Neo doesn’t respond to @neo

  • The comment didn’t mention @neo (or /neo). Plain comments are ignored.
  • The product isn’t Connected. Check its status in Settings.
  • The app is Outdated after a permissions change. A site admin approves the update in Atlassian → Manage apps.

Neo won’t read Confluence

  • Confluence must be connected on its own, since connecting Jira alone isn’t enough.
  • Confluence is read-only. Neo can read and search pages but can’t create or edit them.

Disconnect didn’t remove the app from Jira

This is expected. Disconnecting in Neo drops the link but leaves the app installed. To fully remove Neo, uninstall it from Atlassian admin → Manage apps.
