Postman BasicAuth with Username/API-Token: 401

Question

Hi,

I generated a token for my user but cannot login with postman "BasicAuth" with email and this token as password: get 401

I found these artikles but cannot find a solution

* Which Auth method works in POSTMAN rest API call
* Jira Rest API & Postman: 401 Auth. Error

Jira v9.4.17 on premise

Any ideas?

If you want to use token, which you created, use BearerToken authentication

If you want to use Basic Authentication, use login and password

It's for Onpremise solution.

In Cloud solution logic is absolutely different.

Ho @Evgenii

I generated the API-Token in my profile on our onprem solution, not in the atlassian cloud

So this won't work?

@Frank Leverenz

This documentation is for Cloud. But you're using onprem solution. 
Token, which you made in Atlassian account absolutely isn't linked with your onprem DataCenter Jira and any user in it.
