Successfully authenticated using OAuth 2.0 but I always get a 401

BernardoCoSo

I am writing C# code to interact with the Jira API and even though I can get Authenticated using OAuth I still get a 401 whenever I try to call the API.

I am creating my HttpClient class using the "bearer <token>" string and I am calling the right endpoints, so I am not sure what the problem could be.

Hi @BernardoCoSo Can you share the Endpoint you are trying to reach? Have you checked if the user account that you are using has the required permissions to perform the operation?

Permissions to check:

1. Jira application access

2. Project permission scheme - user part of right roles

3. Are you trying to do an system admin operation? Then the user should have admin access.

Hope this helps.

Hey Anandhi,

Thank you for the suggestions!

I am trying to use the "rest/api/3/myself" and a few others. I have given myself all the Jira Platform and Management permissions and I am using the scopes it recommends in the "Classic Jira platform REST API authorization URL".

@BernardoCoSo Were you able to try this endpoint on a browser or postman? Check if your credentials are right?

I think the problem has something to do with exchanging my authorization code for the token. I am getting something that doesn't look like an access token!

I tried getting the "token" to work in postman but I get the same error.
