Atlassian Rovo MCP
Atlassian's own admin documentation for the Rovo MCP Server GA release names this problem directly and tells admins to confirm their AI tools' egress IPs are allowlisted before deploying. QuotaGuard has provided static IPs for cloud infrastructure since 2013.
Atlassian Cloud organizations that enable IP allowlisting apply it across Jira, Confluence, and Compass at the organization level. A Rovo MCP Server running on Lambda, Cloud Run, Render, or any container platform gets a rotating egress IP that fails this check, even when the OAuth credentials are valid and the user is on an approved network.
- Two-Minute Setup: Set your QuotaGuard proxy URL as the environment variable your MCP server's HTTP client reads for outbound calls, then add both static IPs to the Atlassian Administration allowlist under Security.
- Atlassian's Own Docs Confirm the Failure Mode: The Rovo MCP Server GA admin checklist states plainly that tool calls will be blocked if the server's egress IP isn't allowlisted, even from an approved user network.
- One Allowlist Entry Covers Jira, Confluence, and Compass: The IP allowlist is organization-wide, so a single QuotaGuard entry clears the check across every Atlassian Cloud product the org runs.
- Production-Grade Reliability: A load-balanced pair of static IPs with automated failover. Both IPs go on the Atlassian allowlist, and traffic routes through whichever responds first.
- Shield for Regulated Jira and Confluence Content: For PHI, payment data, or HIPAA/PCI/SOC 2-bound workloads, QuotaGuard Shield uses SSL passthrough so QuotaGuard never decrypts the data flowing between your MCP server and Atlassian.
Allowlist nuance: IP allowlisting on Atlassian Cloud is an organization-level setting, not a per-product one. It only blocks MCP tool calls if the organization has it turned on. Atlassian's own admin checklist is the strongest signal it's a live requirement for any org with a security policy.
