No more Python API working for Confluence.

[Ashish Singh]

I have installed python api (pip install atlassian-python-api) to communicate with confluence cloud. Using this api, I was able to do all activities. Since last Apr 2019 or May 2019(starting), every python api method returning None.

FYI-

1. https://pypi.org/project/atlassian-python-api/ or

2. https://buildmedia.readthedocs.org/media/pdf/atlassian-python-api/latest/atlassian-python-api.pdf

Hello @Ashish Singh ,

Most likely the issue you are facing is caused by the fact that we recently removed basic and cookie authentication, as announced in March 2018 (more than one year ago):

Can you try using email address and API Token instead of username and password?
