Remarks

The API Token is an essential authentication credential that grants access to a range of services associated with the user’s Atlassian account. The API Token replaces the need for using passwords when interacting with the API, providing a safer and more secure authentication method.

To generate the API Token, log in to your Atlassian account, go to Security, and then select Create and manage API tokens. After that, click Create API token to generate a new one.

Since the API Token is a sensitive piece of data, it should be handled securely, and it must not be exposed in public or shared in insecure environments.
