## Install the GitLab Jira Cloud application for self-managed instances **(FREE SELF)**
If your GitLab instance is self-managed, you must follow some
extra steps to install the GitLab Jira Cloud application.
Each Jira Cloud application must be installed from a single location. Jira fetches
a [manifest file](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/connect-app-descriptor/)
from the location you provide. The manifest file describes the application to the system. To support
self-managed GitLab instances with Jira Cloud, you can either:
- [Install the application manually](#install-the-application-manually).
- [Create a Marketplace listing](#create-a-marketplace-listing).
### Install the application manually **(FREE SELF)**
You can configure your Atlassian Cloud instance to allow you to install applications
from outside the Marketplace, which allows you to install the application:
1. Sign in to your Jira instance as a user with administrator permissions.
1. Place your Jira instance into
[development mode](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/getting-started-with-connect/#step-2--enable-development-mode).
1. Sign in to your GitLab application as a user with [Administrator](../../user/permissions.md) permissions.
1. Install the GitLab application from your self-managed GitLab instance, as
described in the [Atlassian developer guides](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/getting-started-with-connect/#step-3--install-and-test-your-app)).
1. In your Jira instance, go to **Apps > Manage Apps** and click **Upload app**:
![Image showing button labeled "upload app"](img/jira-upload-app_v13_11.png)
1. For **App descriptor URL**, provide full URL to your manifest file, modifying this
URL based on your instance configuration: `https://your.domain/your-path/-/jira_connect/app_descriptor.json`
1. Click **Upload**, and Jira fetches the content of your `app_descriptor` file and installs
it for you.
1. If the upload is successful, Jira displays a modal panel: **Installed and ready to go!**
Click **Get started** to configure the integration.
![Image showing success modal](img/jira-upload-app-success_v13_11.png)
The **GitLab for Jira** app now displays under **Manage apps**. You can also
click **Get started** to open the configuration page rendered from your GitLab instance.
NOTE:
If you make changes to the application descriptor, you must uninstall, then reinstall, the
application.
### Create a Marketplace listing **(FREE SELF)**
If you prefer to not use development mode on your Jira instance, you can create
your own Marketplace listing for your instance, which enables your application
to be installed from the Atlassian Marketplace.
For full instructions, review the Atlassian [guide to creating a marketplace listing](https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/marketplace/installing-cloud-apps/#creating-the-marketplace-listing). To create a
Marketplace listing, you must:
1. Register as a Marketplace vendor.
1. List your application, using the application descriptor URL.
- Your manifest file is located at: `https://your.domain/your-path/-/jira_connect/app_descriptor.json`
- GitLab recommends you list your application as `private`, because public
applications can be viewed and installed by any user.
1. Generate test license tokens for your application.
Review the
[official Atlassian documentation](https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/marketplace/installing-cloud-apps/#creating-the-marketplace-listing)
for details.
NOTE:
DVCS means distributed version control system.
## Troubleshooting GitLab for Jira
The GitLab for Jira App uses an iframe to add namespaces on the settings page. Some browsers block cross-site cookies. This can lead to a message saying that the user needs to log in on GitLab.com even though the user is already logged in.
