Hi,
I’m building a confluence plugin which makes an API call to Jira to get a list of customers on our Service Desk. This data gets parsed and plugged into a dropdown on a blueprint we’ve built. I’ve done this by using an ajax call to the applinks proxy (/plugins/servlet/applinks/proxy?appId=…). I’m getting the applink id using an ajax call to (/rest/applinks/1.0/listApplicationlinks").
Now this all works wonderfully if I’m logged in as an administrator, however, if I’m logged in as a regular confluence user my applink calls are pulling back a 401 unauthorized error. I’ve done alot of reading around community posts/tutorials to try find a way to authorize the regular logged in user so that I can make the applink calls to Jira but haven’t had any joy.
Ultimately I want to make an API call from Confluence to Jira to get some Json data using some form of authentication. I’d appreciate any guidance or a steer in the right direction.
