title: JIRA C# SDK Connecting to JIRA
body: <p>I'm using the Atlassian SDK from the following location: <a href="https://bitbucket.org/farmas/atlassian.net-sdk" rel="noreferrer">https://bitbucket.org/farmas/atlassian.net-sdk</a> </p>
  
  <p>Right now, I'm simply trying to connect to my JIRA and just bring down some basic information like my tasks. Doing a quick google I found the following example: <a href="https://www.codeproject.com/Tips/762516/Connecting-to-Jira-using-Csharp" rel="noreferrer">https://www.codeproject.com/Tips/762516/Connecting-to-Jira-using-Csharp</a></p>
  
  <p>In the above link, he connects to JIRA using the following line:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Jira jiraConn = new Jira("http://yourjiraurl.com/", jUserID, jPassword);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But when I try the same line:</p>
  
  <pre><code> Jira jira = new Jira(url, "admin", "password");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get the following errors: </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>cannot convert from 'string' to 'Atlassian.Jira.ServiceLocator'</p>
    
    <p>cannot convert from 'string' to 'Atlassian.Jira.JiraCredentials'</p>
    
    <p>cannot convert from 'string' to 'Atlassian.Jira.JiraCache'</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I've looked around to try and find some documentation on this, but I can't find anything relating to any of the 3 errors or what sort of syntax it is expecting. I would investigate the bitbucket more, but my works firewall has it blocked for unknown reasons. </p>
  
  <p>Does anyone have any experience on combating these errors?</p>
