Issue in Jira Custom Connector

[saikumar]

Hi 

I have build a custom connector on jira

I'm trying to encode the passwords using java code
but im facing error when i was passing the password to jira connector through variables im getting 401 error
but when i'm giving direct value it was working fine
 do i need to use any specific method or annotation in code to support the password encryption methodology?

or any clue what might be the mistake in my side as it is not working for me?
