When I try to use the Eclipse Atlassian Connector plugin, I get "Client response status: 403. Captcha might be required. Please try to log in via browser." That is somewhat expected because I have another authentication that I need to get passed to get to Jira. However, what is not clear is how to use the Connector with the authentication I am using.
Specifically, I have the following questions:
- Can this connector (or eclipse itself by default) handle cookies? Because you need the cookie after authenticating to get through to Jira.
- If there is a redirect, does the authentication information get sent to the new URL? In other words, in the Atlassian Connector configuration interface, I have entered the JIRA server location, label, username, and password. When I click to Validate settings, for example, I assume your plugin sends my credentials in a POST request to the JIRA server. But when you hit the JIRA server without a cookie that proves you are authenticated then you are redirected to the URL of the authentication service. So at that point, do you resend the POST request to that URL?
- As far as that POST request, is it sending og_username and og_password? Those are the values of the "name" attributes on the log on form I believe. Is there any way to change that? Because as mentioned above, since ultimately I am having authentication go through a different service (not JIRA directly), I may want to change those names.
