Hi @hania noor ,

welcome to the Atlassian community!

Please, use the following link to put in place a basic authentication https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/basic-auth-for-rest-apis/

The correct URL should be https://your-domain.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/issue/createmeta

Hope this helps,

Fabio
