-# Creating a username and password for Jira Server
+# Create Jira Server username and password
 
-We need to create a user in Jira to have access to all projects that need to integrate with GitLab.
+For [integrations with Jira](jira.md), you must create a user account in Jira to have access to
+all projects that need to integrate with GitLab.
 
-As an example, we create a user named `gitlab` and add it to a new group
-named `gitlab-developers`.
+The Jira user account created for the integration must have write access to
+your Jira projects.
 
-NOTE:
-It is important that the Jira user created for the integration is given 'write'
-access to your Jira projects. This is covered in the process below.
+As an example, the following process creates a user named `gitlab` and that's a
+member of a new group named `gitlab-developers`:
 
-1. Log in to your Jira instance as an administrator and under **Jira Administration**
-   go to **User Management** to create a new user.
+1. Sign in to your Jira instance as an administrator, and
+   then go to the gear icon and select **User Management**.

-1. The next step is to create a new user (e.g., `gitlab`) who has write access
-   to projects in Jira. Enter the user's name and a _valid_ e-mail address
-   since Jira sends a verification e-mail to set up the password.
+1. Create a new user account (for example, `gitlab`) with write access to
+   projects in Jira. Enter the user account's name and a valid e-mail address,
+   because Jira sends a verification email to set up the password.
 
-   Jira creates the username automatically by using the e-mail
-   prefix. You can change it later, if needed. Our integration does not support SSO (such as SAML). You
-   need to create an HTTP basic authentication password. You can do this by visiting the user
-   profile, looking up the username, and setting a password.

-1. Create a `gitlab-developers` group (we give this group write access to Jira
-   projects in a later step.) Go to the **Groups** tab on the left, and select **Add group**.
+1. From the sidebar, select **Groups**.
 
    ![Jira create new user](img/jira_create_new_group.png)
 
-   Give it a name and click **Add group**.
+1. In the **Add group** section, enter a **Name** for the group (for example,
+   `gitlab-developers`), and then select **Add group**.
 
-1. Add the `gitlab` user to the `gitlab-developers` group by clicking **Edit members**.
-   The `gitlab-developers` group should be listed in the leftmost box as a selected group.
-   Under **Add members to selected group(s)**, enter `gitlab`.
+1. Add the `gitlab` user to the `gitlab-developers` group by selecting **Edit members**.

+   selected group. In the **Add members to selected group(s)** area, enter `gitlab`.
 
    ![Jira add user to group](img/jira_add_user_to_group.png)
 
-   Click **Add selected users** and `gitlab` should appear in the **Group member(s)** box.
-   This membership is saved automatically.

+   area. This membership is saved automatically.

-1. To give the newly-created group 'write' access, you need to create a **Permission Scheme**.
-   To do this, click the gear icon and select **Issues**. Then click **Permission Schemes**.
-   Click **Add Permission Scheme** and enter a **Name** and, optionally, a **Description**.
+1. To give the newly-created group 'write' access, you must create a permission
+   scheme. To do this, in the admin menu, go to the gear icon and select **Issues**.
 
-1. Once your permission scheme is created, you are taken back to the permissions scheme list.
-   Locate your new permissions scheme and click **Permissions**. Next to **Administer Projects**,
-   click **Edit**. In the resulting dialog box, select **Group** and select `gitlab-developers`
-   from the dropdown.
+1. From the sidebar, select **Permission Schemes**.
+
+1. Select **Add Permission Scheme**, enter a **Name** and (optionally) a
+   **Description**, and then select **Add**.
