As of June 1, 2015, the IDE Connector documentation will no longer be maintained by Atlassian. See https://developer.atlassian.com/blog/2015/06/discontinuing-ide-connectors-support/ for more information. We will also be making this documentation available for our open source community here: http://atlassian-docs.bitbucket.org/

If you have already installed the JIRA Connector via the Mylyn Connector Discovery in Eclipse, only the JIRA component of the Atlassian Connector for Eclipse will be installed. Follow the instructions below to upgrade to the full Atlassian Connector for Eclipse, which includes FishEye, Crucible and Bamboo integration.

If you have never installed the connector, please refer to the installation guide instead. If you want to upgrade an existing installation of the Atlassian Connector for Eclipse, please refer to this upgrade guide instead.
