Authentication
To use the REST-API, you (the "API user") need to be authenticated.
curl -D- -u fred:fred -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://example.com/myjira/rest/icbiz/1.0/worklog/report
Please find all details in the respective JIRA documentation https://developer.atlassian.com/display/JIRADEV/JIRA+REST+API+Example+-+Basic+Authentication
If you are not using a separate "API user" that never logs in into JIRA, but a user who logs in into JIRA, keep in mind that it might happen that during manual login, you enter a wrong password a couple of times, which - if JIRA is configured this way - will lead to a situation where the API user does not work any longer because JIRA expects the user entering a captcha text!
