Perspective allows the users to get, create and update customers and organizations data. It can be used to import data one time or build a synchronization middleware with other data sources. For authentication, we use API tokens.

3. Click Generate and later on Copy token.

How to authenticate a request in Postman

To properly authenticate the request using Postman, choose the Authorization type called Bearer Token. Define a header "Authorization" with the token generated in our app. It should have the following format:

Authorization: Bearer {{generated_token_from_the_app}}

We allow executing 5 requests per second per one Jira instance.

1. Click on the Apps icon in the top navigation and go into Explore more apps.
