Hi @saravanan subramanian 

Your Authorization header is missing a space after 'Basic', and the encode_base64 function adds a newline character by default, which can corrupt the header. Have you tried adding a space as below?

$jira_rest->addHeader('Authorization', 'Basic '.encode_base64("$username:$password", ''));
