Is it possible to use generated personal API keys instead of oauth?

Since switching to oauth I'm going bald, every other chat I have to go manually reset the connection so that (I assume) it renews some expired token.  This never happened when I could just use a generated API key.  

Can we please get these methods of connecting back?

@Anthony France and @Julien Rovo Dev no longer supports personal API keys—OAuth is the only option now. The frequent re-auth you’re seeing happens when the local token cache breaks or the site mapping changes. Clearing the .rovodev folder and re-logging in usually stabilizes it. If token drops continue, share your logs with Atlassian; reliable long-lived auth is a common request, and your feedback helps push it.
