OAuth Authentication using JIRA REST Java Client 2.0.0-m31

[Piyush Khera]

I am trying to use JRJC v2.0.0-m31 provided by Atlassian. I cannot find any OAuthAuthenticationHandler to create REST clients using OAuth authentication.

Could anyone help me with an example on how to create a JIRA REST client using OAuth authentication?

Thanks

Hi Piyush Khera,

You can use JiraRestClient without using OAuth.

JiraRestClient restClient = new JiraRestClient(URI, user, password);
restClient.getSearchClient().......etc.

I wish I could. But I need to authorize another application to access JIRA using the REST client using the OAuth access token

If you are still interested, I figured out how to do this. See here: https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/api-reference/jira-rest-apis/jira-rest-api-tutorials/jira-rest-api-example-oauth-authentication

Yes this works but I need to integrate this with the JIRA REST Java Client v2.0.0-m31 library. Any idea how I can create an OAuthAuthenticationHandler?

I used, Java Client 0.6-m8 library. I created another application that gets any data from Jira Server. Try with Java Client 0.8-m8 library. Here an example: http://zubaidullo.weebly.com/zubaidullos-blog/using-jira-rest-java-client

The example I posted works with JIRA REST Java Client v2.0.0-m31. That's what we are using.

@Guy Rouillier Could you please give me a sample code that uses OAuth authentication with JRJC?

[Guy Rouillier]

Piyush, see the link I provide in my first comment here. I provide sample code in the comment section on that page. Let me know if you have any questions following my example.

[Piyush Khera]

The link in your comment https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/wiki/display/JRJC/Home%29 which gives a 404.

[Guy Rouillier]

Fixed. That's just a link to JRJC, which you presumably already have. My contribution is the message that shows how to access it when using OAuth.
