Hi,

I want to use Jira Rest API from a Windows Client (developed with Windev, but the problem is the same for others like .Net).

Our Jira use SAML authentication based on "SAML Single Sign On for Jira" by re:solution.

I can't use basic authentication, since password are not in Jira and this is not a good solution.

I try the "API Token Authentication for Jira" from re:solution and this will work, but I don't like this solution, since it need to generate a token for the user.

I see Windev exemple to use oAuth, but when I look at the Jira documentation, I see that oAuth need to be define in the Link Application and this requiere a web application (URL).

Anyone have a solution ?

Thanks
