How do I set up the Authentication header for Jira Automation "Send Web Request"?

Jamie Maiquez

It is my first time setting up a Jira Automation with "Send Web Request".

I have set up everything except for the Authorization information for the header. What is the correct syntax or how do I set up the header to take in my username and password so that it can access my boomi REST API?

It all depends on what header Boomi is expecting. For example Jira is using the Authorization as the header and then you add the email address and API key as the value, something like this:

The API reference should have all the information that you need to set up the authentication header.
