Description

Starting the past couple of weeks, i've started getting this error trying to use JiraPS:
Invoke-JiraMethod : For security reasons Jira requires you to log on to the website before continuing.

Trying to move to using a personal access token doesn't seem to work either.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Set-JiraConfigServer -Server 'https://jira.mycompany.com"
  2. $username = "mycompanyusername"
  3. $password = "mypersonalaccesstoken"
  4. $secpasswd = ConvertTo-SecureString $password -AsPlainText -Force
  5. $mycreds = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential ($username, $secpasswd)
  6. New-JiraSession -Credential $mycreds
  7. Get-JiraIssue -Issue "RXNS2-15297"

also not working:
$cred3 = Get-Credential -UserName $username -Message "mypersonalaccesstokenhere"
#at this point it asks for my password - I enter it
New-JiraSession -Credential $cred3

In fact, I get this error on that one:
Invoke-JiraMethod : The user could not be authenticated.

Expected behavior

To log in.

Possible Solution

My only idea is something to do with our local jira instance, but even the documentation barely covers using PATs.

If I use curl -v https://jira.mycompanyname.com --user myname@mycompanyname.com:mypersonalaccesstoken
the page returned says "AUTHENTICATED FAILED"

if I use curl -v https://jira.mycompanyname.com --user myname:mypersonalaccesstoken
the page returned says "AUTHENTICATION_DENIED"
