Getting 401-Unauthorized Error trying to access attachments using Atlassian API

[Linda Zhao]

I am running the following code:

import requests

from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth

import json

url = "https://foo.atlassian.net/wiki/api/v2/attachments"

auth = HTTPBasicAuth("foo.bar@foobar.com", "MY_API_TOKEN")

headers = {

  "Accept": "application/json",

}

response = requests.request(

  "GET",

  url,

  headers=headers,

  auth=auth

)

print(response)

 essentially the exact copy of the code snippet provided here:
https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v2/api-group-attachment/#api-attachments-get

but i am getting a 401 error despite definitely using the correct API key and using the site admin email

Is this anything to do with the fact that I am on the free version?

If not is there a permission i need to configure on the Atlassian side so that this request goes thru?

Hello @Linda Zhao ,

API's are available for all of the pricing models. Make sure that all of the credentials are correct.

If nothing works from the above raise a support ticket for Atlassian.

BR,

Nikola
