 Finally, from the command line again, run `php artisan vendor:publish` to publish
 the default configuration file to config/jira.php.

+    ]

+Using the package without setting the connection will default to your 'default' setting.
+Define as many connections as you want in the 'connections' array.
+You can add your Jira configuration to your environment file (may need to change config accordingly).
+Choose your connection using the connection() method (see below [Changing connections](#connections)).

 ## Searching issues
 
 The search method will take the jql query string:
 
 ```php
-$response = Jira::search( 'project = YourProject AND labels = somelabel' );
+use Jira;
+
+public function index(){
+    $response = Jira::search( 'project = YourProject AND labels = somelabel' );

 You can build and test the jql beforehand if you go to your Jira site Issues > Search for Issues > Advanced Search.

+## Changing connections
+
+Multiple connections can be defined to access different JIRA instances.
+
+Calling the connection with empty parameter will default to your 'default' config in config/jira.php.
+```php
+$response = Jira::connection()->search( 'project = YourProject AND labels = somelabel' );
+```
+
+You can call the connection() method with a string to select your connection defined in config/jira.php.
+```php
+$response = Jira::connection('example')->search( 'project = YourProject AND labels = somelabel' );
+```
+
+Finally you can call the connection() method with an array of url, username and password.
+```php
+$response = Jira::connection(['newUrl','newUsername','newPassword'])->search( 'project = YourProject AND labels = somelabel' );
+```
