Jira API deprecation of issue search permissiosn issue

Question

Hi

Referring to this deprecation notice https://developer.atlassian.com/changelog/#CHANGE-2046

I changed my code to call .../search/jql instead of .../search but now I am getting a 401 on my responses

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Yatish

Thanks @Rudy Holtkamp

I found my issue.

I was getting that because I was passing the body as a query string and not as the POST payload. Also, i was using JWT as the auth method and not API tokens.

It works now as expected.

I just found it odd to return a 401 instead of a 400 Bad Request.

Thank you

Yatish

Hi @Yatish Madhav ,

A 401 is an unauthorized response. So you are using the wrong/expired/wrongly scoped API key.

Regenerate an api token on https://id.atlassian.com/manage-profile/security/api-tokens

And It might be helpful if you post your request details here. (Without the authorization token, of course).
