I am trying to configure Jira url's in jenkins but i am facing attached issue. i have installed Jira plugin in my jenkins dashboard and trying to configure Jira url in jenkins configurations,hence i am using basic authentication but it is giving error like this instance is not allowed this password and so on... For ur reference i am attaching the page please help me out.
Thanks for the reply, but i have one doubt like Do i need to add OAuth credentials in Jira dashboard too? without that can't we configure from jenkins?. Please let me know , it would be great.
I'm referring to this, I don't know what dashboard do you mean..
Atlassian JIRA Cloud, it's not possible to create a user without an email, so you need to create API token.
Then create a global Jenkins credential, where you put Atlassian ID email as username and API token as password.
At https://plugins.jenkins.io/jira , update the screenshots with newer screenshots of the latest plugin. The latest plugin requires you to use a Jenkins Credential, instead of typing in a user and password
Put the docs for JIRA Cloud closer to the top of https://plugins.jenkins.io/jira . It wasn't clear to me from reading that doc, that an API Token was required to log into JIRA via this plugin.
