Hello,
Having issue with JIRA back via Powershell, Could someone help on this?
Invoke-RestMethod : The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.At E:\Scripts\JIRA.ps1:37 char:1+ Invoke-RestMethod -UseBasicParsing -Method Post -Uri "https://$hostna ...+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~+ CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (System.Net.HttpWebRequest:HttpWebRequest) [Invoke-RestMethod], WebException+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : WebCmdletWebResponseException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeRestMethodCommandVERBOSE: POST https://xxxxxx.atlassian.net/rest/backup/1/export/runbackup with -1-byte payload{"message":"Client must be authenticated to access this resource.","status-code":401}
It means what it says - your call is being made from code that does not authenticate the session first. Your code needs to "log in" correctly as a user and get tokens that say it has access and then provide them when making calls to the system.
Hello Nic,
Thank you very much for the reply. We can log on to the system without any issues via the browser. But when we try to run the script with same credentials that used in site this issue popup.
This is full powershell script that we are using to backup. Appreciate if you could look

I don't use powershell, I can't tell you what is wrong with the code, other than it is not presenting the right authorisation data to Jira. Check what your script is doing against https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/jira-rest-api-basic-authentication/
@IT Infrastructure is your script backup host JIRA Cloud site include attachments ?
See https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/how-to-backup-JIRA-cloud-hole-site-WITH-attachments/qaq-p/1682265 for something a bit more up-to-date
