i tried using user email and api token . that does not work. using my regular web creds does not work
Hi @Marek Ptak _TT_
Could you please clarify is it Cloud (atlassian.net) or Server Jira?In any way here is an example of python script that I'm using:
from jira import JIRA # Variables block baseUrl = 'http://localhost:8730' # base url of your Jira instance username = 'admin' # username from Jira token = 'QNuOzeGj3rfwdVFMUbIUx20Fuu0ZQ6u2lfe' # token (or password) # Jira initialization block options = {'server':baseUrl} jira = JIRA(options, basic_auth=(username, token)) # Actual logic issueKey = 'BVGB-10' issue = jira.issue(issueKey) print(issue.fields.summary)
so how do i go about creating this user and and token for local instance of jira ?
Regarding user, it's a username of user that you would like to use in automation.
It could be your personal username or dedicated user for such automation.
Regarding tokens, it's still not implemented for local instances.
You can use normal user' password there or give a try to my plugin API Tokens for Jira
I am a developer of that plugin, so feel free to ask any question regarding it
i am confused here. i was given creds for web access they work. i was told that same creds should work for python api. they do not. there is not facility on the web interface to create api token. cloud jira has such option
