"Issue does not exist or you do not have permission to see it."

Hi @goutam chalkikar

Postman should work if you've entered everything correctly, I fairly often use it successfully.

So just to check a few things :

* You need to be using your Jira e-mail address and API token for authentication
* The e-mail address you use should be the same one that was used to generate the token
* The authentication type must be Basic

I notice that you have // before the word rest in your URL, it should only be one /
