Connecting with Jira with 3rd Party App Using a Token

[Kevin Passey]

Hi 

I'm trying to connect to Jira from a IBMi change control system using a generated token.

All I get is - gsk_secure_soc_init-Error Code:6000 - Certificate is not signed by a trusted certificate authority.

I am assuming this is a problem on the IBMi side.

Has anybody seen this before?

Thanks

Kevin

It is a bit unclear, but I assume you're trying to connect to the Jira Cloud REST API using an  API token.

Each API token belongs to a valid Atlassian user account. For a properly authenticated request, you need to encode both the email address and the token to an HTTP request header, following the Basic auth rules.

See: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/basic-auth-for-rest-apis/

Thanks Aron,

I suspect it has something to do with my java client submitting the http request.

There seems to be some trust issue with the remote host - so I think my java client setup on the IBMi is the problem - I've raised a ticket with the software developer.

Thanks for your response anyway.
