We have PIV Smartcard, so we want to test Jira with smartcard authentication.

Soumayadeep,

What options are available for organizations that want to use their smartcard (PIV or CAC) authentication to _also_ make authorized API calls to the Atlassian REST APIs without requiring the users, administrators, or programmers of their API clients (e.g. Postman, Mulesoft, etc) from having to supply either Basic Auth passwords or OAuth client secrets or tokens?

(I believe I know the answer but I am curious about any recent developments here.)
