Jira Connector v1.5.0

This release of the Jira Connector introduces OpenID Connect (OIDC) support, enhancing authentication and improving security integration. API authentication is supported via Qualys-managed tokens using a user-level client. For more details, refer to Qualys Token-based Authentication Technical Brief.

If you want to use Client ID and Client Secret for authentication, include the following parameters in the config.json file, as shown below:

"credentials": {
"qualys":{"apiUrl": "<YOUR QUALYS POD API URL HERE>",             
"username": "<YOUR QUALYS POD USERNAME HERE>",             
"password": "<YOUR QUALYS POD PASSWORD HERE>",            
"authMechanism": "<Your Authentication mechanism. i.e BASIC or OAUTH>",             
"clientId": "<YOUR ClientID for QUALYS SUBSCRIPTION>",             
"clientSecret": "<YOUR CLIENT SECRET for QUALYS SUBSCRIPTION>"        
} 

You can authenticate using one of the following methods, based on your organization’s security policies and access setup:

  • Basic Authentication: Configure your Qualys username and password.
  • OAuth Authentication: Configure the User-Level Client ID and Client Secret:
    • Client ID: Enter the Client ID provided through your Qualys OIDC configuration.
    • Client Secret: Enter the corresponding Client Secret.
