# Quickstart

> Get Ziggy running in your Slack workspace in 5 minutes

## Three steps to your first Jira ticket

<Steps>
  <Step title="Install Ziggy">
    Add Ziggy to your Slack workspace from [ziggy.sh](https://ziggy.sh).

    You'll need to authorize Ziggy to:

    * Read messages where Ziggy is mentioned
    * Post messages in channels
    * Access files shared in conversations
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect Jira">
    In any Slack channel, type `/ziggy connect` and follow the OAuth flow to connect your Jira Cloud instance.

    <Note>Connecting Jira starts your 14-day free trial.</Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create your first ticket">
    In any Slack thread, mention Ziggy:

    ```
    Ziggy create a task for this
    ```

    Ziggy will read the thread context and create a complete Jira issue.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What happens next

Once you create your first ticket, Ziggy will:

1. React with an eyes emoji to acknowledge your request
2. Read the thread and gather context
3. Extract issue details using AI
4. Create the Jira issue
5. Post a confirmation with a link to the new issue

## Set your default project

To skip the project selection step, set a default project in the Ziggy **Home** tab. Open Ziggy in the Apps section of your Slack sidebar and click **Home** to configure your default project.

<Tip>You can always override the default by specifying a project inline: `@Ziggy in PROJ: create a task`</Tip>
