hi ! @Gopi Ramamoorthy . Please try following:

1. Disable basic authentication for API calls: https://confluence.atlassian.com/enterprise/disabling-basic-authentication-1044776464.html

2. Setup token authentication with IP restrictions:

You can also use some advanced plugins like Kantega:

Hello @Piotr Witka 

Your screen image for My API Token is from a self-hosted (i.e. Data Center) Jira Product.

The author of the post specified Cloud as their Deployment. That is the Atlassian-hosted SaaS products.

Your information does not apply to the Cloud/SaaS product.

If your organisation has a VPN then you can configure the IP allowlist to restrict traffic.

Hello @Richard Cho - ServiceRocket 

Wouldn't that apply to all access to the UI also? The post author asked about restricting API access.

Hello @Gopi Ramamoorthy 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

Can you tell us about the problem you are trying to solve by implementing this? Perhaps we can suggest how to address the problem in another way.

It is not possible to restrict API access by IP addresses.
