How to resolve 403 captcha error in Eclipse when trying to connect to a Jira Task Repository

[Marilyse_Gast]

I have Eclipse Oxygen and the Atlassian Connector for Eclipse plug-in installed. I have a Jira Software Cloud Trial account. 

Every time I have tried to connect to the Jira Task Repository in Eclipse using my Jira account information, I get a "Client response status 403. Captcha might be required. Please try to log in via browser."

I login via the browser just fine and this error in Eclipse never resolves itself. 

Is there a way to turn of Captcha for a Jira Software Cloud account? If so, I cannot find it anywhere, even though I am the admin.

Is Captcha verification only allowed to be disabled on Jira Software Server accounts?

Is there some setting or way I can fix this Captcha issue in Eclipse to get Eclipse to connect to the Jira Repository?  

I have already gone through all of the installation steps & configuration steps for Atlassian Connector for Eclipse listed on your website several times. Am I missing something?

Is Eclipse Oxygen not supported?

Hello @Marilyse_Gast

Welcome to the Atlassian Community.

As you can see in this thread,  I believe that Atlassian Connector for Eclipse does not support cookie-based authentication and redirect to external auth services.

Additionally, Since you are asking a development question, you can have more details and possible workarounds in  the Atlassian Developer Community:
