Question

I have downloaded the jar (jira-api-7.1.0-QR20151229171111) from JAVA API and I need to connect to my jira account using this api ?

can someone guide me?

There is no API in a random download of part of a system, so that's nonsense.

Could you explain what you are trying to do?  Not "create project/issue using something" but what you are trying to achieve?  What does the end-user get out of this?

Why?  There's nothing I can find that would tell you to do this.
