Getting 401 while accessing API

[deepak_kumbhar46]

Hello everyone, 

I am using Jira agile API, I have created a Jira application and integrated that application with the account, and created an access token (Bearer). But while accessing the API it is giving me a 401 error. Can anyone please help me with this? Attaching the image for reference.

Thanks in advance.

HI @deepak_kumbhar46 ,

Looks like an authorization error. Do you have permission to that page which your assessing? If you tried viewing the page as that actual user, are you able to see that page? Double check your bearer token as well to makes sure no typos or missing characters in there.

Thanks,

Ben

Hey @Benjamin Thanks for your reply,

Yes I do have. Can you tell me what scope will required to access the above API? And Yes I am able to access the page in browser (If I am logged into Jira cloud)

HI @Deepak Govindram Kumbhar ,

might be related to how you generated the token for you API call then is all your permission for user is okay.
