JIRA deprecated cookie-based authentication in favor of basic authentication with API tokens or OAuth. The current “Update JIRA issues field” Step only supports cookie-based authentication. I wonder if it is possible to modify the step so that it would support authentication with API tokens or OAuth?

Hi @xinyucao! Since this is a Community step, we do not own or maintain it, so can’t address this problem directly, however the report seems justified. Can you raise this issue on the step’s repository here please?
