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.
