I need to find out my server id, Can someone show me a link besides the jira wizard?

Justin Rose April 19, 2019

when i downloaded jira. the software says view license key and then im prompted to put in my server id which i have looked everywhere to find. I was told to go jira wizard to find it but its the same answer i found myself with no help. where is exactly is this server id? how do i long into jira admin because i have no idea. i log in and there is no settings icon where i can find anything. I payed just for jira for 10 dollars what is going on? i just need this server id right now if someone can help me.

If you are running the newly installed Jira server for the first time, when you go to the url it is running on, it will take you through a setup wizard which asks you to paste in the licence. 

The server ID is given on that screen

There are ways to bypass that process though, so it is possible to get a Jira running without a licence, although most of it won't work (you can't write anything), and if you've managed that, then you need to go to Admin -> Licence and paste in the licence key.  Again, the server ID will be on that screen.

There's also Admin -> System information if the Jira is running.

It's shown on the "System Info" page in the admin interface.
