The Atlassian CLI tool works by accessing Jira features and functions via its remote SOAP and REST API.

We updated the Jira script file with Jira details, so we don't have to specify them every time; this is useful if we want to use the tool in a script. When we run the Jira script, it will have all the necessary connection information.

The Atlassian CLI comes with a list of command actions, such as the addUser action that we used to create users in Jira. You can get a full list of actions from https://bobswift.atlassian.net/wiki/display/JCLI/Documentation.
