Basic Authentication to connect and upload an attachment to JIRA , always shows 401 error since past 3 days.
However, earlier the same code base was working fine.I made no changes in code but it is not working any more.
I wrote my code in VBA excel to connect to JIRA and upload excel attachments.
Somewhere, I heard that this issues keeps occuring from time to time. Is it so ?
Hi @rahul19.singh19,
Can you please show us the code you’re using to authenticate yourself? (Be sure to mask any passwords or tokens)
Hi @hirota.takayuki you are correct.Since, jira ended support for password in rest api, we need to use api token as password and the username as login.
This works.

Good to hear that using an API-token works for you.
