Hi

I'm looking for the captcha feature, but i don't see it.

Is it available or not yet ?

Thank you in advance :)

This repo is not actively maintained any more. Check out our fork and our release on npm.

I don't see any Captcha support documented in Atlassian's JIRA REST API Docs unless I'm missing it and you can direct me to where Atlassian has documented that this feature is available on their end.

ok thank you. Tape on google: captcha jira , you'll see some results but the documentation is light about it: Maybe here: https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/jira-apis/jira-rest-apis/jira-rest-api-tutorials/jira-rest-api-version-2-tutorial but it's light too :/

Be aware that you cannot use JIRA's REST API to authenticate with a JIRA site, once JIRA's CAPTCHA upon login feature has been triggered.

Directly from that doc you just linked. https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/jira-apis/jira-rest-apis/jira-rest-api-tutorials/jira-rest-api-version-2-tutorial#JIRARESTAPIVersion2Tutorial-CAPTCHAs

You're getting the captcha most probably because you're making a lot of request that don't hit on target with JIRA, I have it happened to me and that was because I change my password every 3 months and I haven't changed my credentials used in the API. If you are getting this issue most probably you're not using it right. Try not to make many requests / second, and use the right password when accessing JIRA.

I don't see any way you could sent the captcha form through to another party tho.

Hope this helps.

ok thank you guys and yes it's because i try with one / two requests to know if credentials are right before to execute my others requests but sometimes i get a captcha on the real jira website but i don't see my 3 wrong requests or maybe it's a problem of requests by second ... In this case i will redirect a link to the JIRA on my application if i can't manage it directly with the API. thank you for the details and your help :)
