Rest api auth error

[Diana Liang]

Hi, 

I'm trying to use powershell to do a rest api call to my jira cloud software to get an issue and I keep getting 403 forbidden error.  I've created an api key using: https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/api-tokens-938839638.html

Can someone give me some pointers please?

here is my request body:

$url="https://my-domain/rest/agile/1.0/issue/issueKey-1"
$username = "user@company.com";
$password = ConvertTo-SecureString –String "apikey" –AsPlainText -Force
$credential = New-Object –TypeName "System.Management.Automation.PSCredential" –ArgumentList $username, $password
$base64AuthInfo = [Convert]::ToBase64String([Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes(("{0}:{1}" -f $username,$password)))

$headers = New-Object "System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary[[String],[String]]"
$headers.Add("Accept", 'application/json')
$headers.Add("Content-type", 'application/json')
$headers.Add("Authorization", "Basic $base64AuthInfo")

Invoke-WebRequest -Method GET -Uri $url -Headers $headers -Credential $credential
