Getting 404 error while accessing source /jira/rest/auth/1/session

[Sagar]

While  doing cookie based authentication  with Jira getting 404 error while accessing resource "https://testhappiestminds.atlassian.net/jira/rest/auth/1/session"

@SagarThe resource you trying to access is removed from Jira Cloud in favor of API tokens, OAuth, or Atlassian Connect.

Here is deprecation/removal notice by Atlassian - https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/deprecation-notice-basic-auth-and-cookie-based-auth/

I suggest you to use basic authentication which is documented here - https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/jira-rest-api-basic-authentication/

@DPK J 

Thanks for the information.

I was going through basic authentication documentation which was  referred by you and I found here also they are trying to access  resource "/rest/api/2/issue". Hence again, I am getting 404 error. Could you please help me here. Actually I wanted to create an issue in JIra using Api's which they have exposed.As we need to do authentication before we create issues, I am using above steps.

Below is sample bash file that you can use to create issue in Jira. Please replace,

1. SITE_NAME with your site address i.e. https://testhappiestminds.atlassian.net
2. EMAIL with your email
3. API_TOKEN with API Token your might have generated
   • Follow this if you have not generated API Token - https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/api-tokens-938839638.html
4. PROJECT_KEY with key of project you want to create issue in
5. ISSUE_SUMMARY with textual issue summary
6. ISSUE_TYPE_NAME with name of issue type, like "Bug", "Task" etc.

Please save this as "sample.sh" and execute.

#!/bin/bash

curl --request POST \
--url 'https://testhappiestminds.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue' \
--user '<EMAIL>:<API_TOKEN>' \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"fields": {
"project": {
"key": "<PROJECT_KEY>"
},
"summary": "<ISSUE_SUMMARY>",
"issuetype": {
"name": "<ISSUE_TYPE_NAME>"
},
}
}'

Note - I have seen that you are adding 'jira' context path after site address before 'rest', this is not correct. API path for JIRA cloud is  'SITE_ADDRESS/rest/api/3/...'

Also take a look at this API documentation - https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/?utm_source=%2Fcloud%2Fjira%2Fplatform%2Frest%2F&utm_medium=302#api-rest-api-3-issue-post
