Hey @Mahamadou 

Welcome to the community.

The error means you are authenticating with your account password, which we no longer accept, as mentioned in our blog here.

The Workaround is to use App Passwords as your password authentication credentials instead of your Atlassian account password.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Syahrul
