Basic auth 401 issue

Question

Hi I am using the following two apis-

Get https://name.atlassian.net/wiki/api/v2/spaces?fields=name

Post

https://name.atlassian.net/wiki/api/v2/pages

Now, in the postman if I am authenticating using the emailid:token type of basic auth it runs perfectly,

but if I have to use it in an agent with a schema then I am passing it as

Basic <base64 encoded format> but it shows 401 how to resolve?

Hi @Mansi Gusain

No what is the configuration of you API you want to make.

The above provide info is just the default.

A simple example can be found in the documentation, https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/basic-auth-for-rest-apis/
