Does JIRA python module work anymore because of the deprecated password/username method?

Question

The Jira python module used to use a basic_auth authentication using your username and password/token, which doesn't appear to work anymore due to the deprecation. Does this mean that the module is useless or is there still an alternative way to authenticate? Is using the API the only way now?

jira_connection = JIRA(    basic_auth=(email, api_token)), server="https://site.atlassian.net")

I found the issue. I guess the module is still working but thanks for your input

Thanks! I noticed that was for the APIs, so are you saying that the module is useless. I will need to rework what I've built if that's true and I want to make sure because I'm able to run my program successfully when run on my local machine but it breaks when put into the development context
