HttpResponse<JsonNode> response = Unirest.get("/rest/api/3/applicationrole")
                  .basicAuth("email@example.com", "<api_token>")
                  .header("Accept", "application/json")
                  .asJson();                   System.out.println(response.getBody());

Hello @Manjeet_Chaudhary ,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

If I understand correctly you are trying to use Unirest-Java (http://kong.github.io/unirest-java/) to send REST API requests to Jira Core Cloud, but something is not working. Is this correct? 

If this is correct, could you let us know what is not working exactly?

I am asking this since, looking at the provided code, it seems you are just using the sample data from the REST API documentation for /rest/api/3/applicationrole endpoint:

HttpResponse<JsonNode> response = Unirest.get("/rest/api/3/applicationrole")
                  .basicAuth("email@example.com", "<api_token>")

 

However, please notice that is just an example and therefore in your code you should replace the sample values with the real one.

Specifically:

1. You have to provide the full url for your instance together with the REST API endpoint (replace <YOUR_SITE_NAME> with your Jira site name): 
   

   HttpResponse<JsonNode> response = Unirest.get("https://<YOUR_SITE_NAME>.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/applicationrole")

2. You have to use email address and Api Token of an existing user (with proper rights) in your instance:
   

   .basicAuth("maxxxxxxxxx88@gmail.com", "loxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxD5")

 

For details on how to generate an Api Token for your user, please see:
