Request error: 403 Client Error: Forbidden for url for JIRA ADK connector

[ibbysho]

Hello ,

I am building a simple agent that uses Jira Cloud connector lets you manage Jira Cloud issues . I keep running into the error below.

ValueError: Request error: 403 Client Error: Forbidden for url: https://connectors.googleapis.com/v1/projects/adk-crashcourse/locations/us-central1/connections/jira-connect?view=BASIC

I have tested my Jira Connector (Integration Connector) and it works in Google Cloud to create new tickets in Jira. I have created the ExecuteConnection (Application Integration) as requested. My code is using Vertex AI .

tool.py file below
from google.adk.tools.application_integration_tool.application_integration_toolset import ApplicationIntegrationToolset

connector_tool = ApplicationIntegrationToolset(
project="adk-crashcourse", # TODO: replace with GCP project of the connection adk-crashcourse-461018
location="us-central1", #TODO: replace with location of the connection
connection="jira-connect", #TODO: replace with connection name jira-iowa jira-central
entity_operations={"Issues": ["GET", "LIST"]},#empty list for actions means all operations on the entity are supported.
#actions=["action1"], #TODO: replace with actions
#service_account_credentials='{...}', # optional
#tool_name="JIRATool",
tool_instructions="Use this tool when an issue in JIRA has to be searched"
)

agent.py file below
from google.adk.agents import Agent
from .tools import connector_tool

#Create the root agent
root_agent = Agent(
name="JIRASearchAgent",
model="gemini-2.0-flash",
description="This agent helps search issues in JIRA ",
instruction="""
Use this agent to call an integration to search for issues in JIRA
""",
tools=connector_tool.get_tools(),
)

The picture of the error I am getting

It is a 403 error and I was checking the documentation could this be a permission issue . I have given my service account for the jira connector all the roles required and I can think of but I keep getting the same error .

Please advice if possible . I feel it is a small fix I am missing .

I have the same error using the BigQUery connector

Hi @ibbysho / @rragundez ,
Have you followed prerequisites in the doc. Do you have Connector Admin or Connector Viewer access in the project of the connection?

It is finally working for me. I think the change was using my project id ('adk-crashcourse-461018') instead of my project name ('adk-crashcourse') . This is the same project the google cloud cli is connected to below. This fixed the initial 403 client error.

My project name connected to the google cli.

Then i started getting the' ApplicationIntegrationToolset.get_tools' was never awaited' error this was because of
tools = jira_toolset.get_tools() .

I found the workaround here #1037. Which was
tools = [jira_toolset]

Then everything started working for me.

Agent.py file
from google.adk.agents import Agent , LlmAgent
from .tools import jira_toolset
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

root_agent = LlmAgent(
name="JIRASearchAgent",
model="gemini-2.0-flash",
description="This agent helps search issues in JIRA ",
instruction="""
Use this agent to call an integration to search for issues in JIRA
""",
tools = [jira_toolset]
)

Tool.py file
from google.adk.tools.application_integration_tool.application_integration_toolset import ApplicationIntegrationToolset

jira_toolset = ApplicationIntegrationToolset(
project="adk-crashcourse-461018", # Ensure it is your project id , this was the cause of the 403 Client Error above .
location="us-central1",
connection="jira-connect",
entity_operations={"Issues": ["GET", "LIST","CREATE","UPDATE"]},
)

Hope this helps you with your big query connector @rragundez . Thank you for your help @salonijuneja21 .

Why don't you guys just have actually working code in your examples? @gcp
Is always the same with all the new gcp tooling, poor software engineering and terrible documentation.

I take offense at this description of my engineering skills.
