JiraHook - Cannot connect to JIRA

[darwinyip]

Apache Airflow version: 1.10.10

Environment: Docker
Package: apache-airflow-backport-providers-jira==2020.6.24

What happened:

JiraHook fails to connect to Jira server. However using the jira library, it connects fine.

How to reproduce it:

Connection:

Name: jira
Conn Type: JIRA
Host: https://xxxxx.atlassian.net
Login: username
Password: password

Using hook:

from datetime import datetime

from airflow import DAG
from airflow.operators.python_operator import PythonOperator
from airflow.providers.jira.hooks.jira import JiraHook


def update_jira():
    jira_client = JiraHook(jira_conn_id='jira').get_conn()


default_args = {
    "owner": "airflow",
    "depends_on_past": False,
    "start_date": datetime(2020, 9, 23),
    'schedule_interval': None,
}

with DAG('test-jira', default_args=default_args) as dag:
    jira_task = PythonOperator(
        task_id='jira_task',
        python_callable=update_jira
    )

Error:

ERROR - Failed to create jira client, jira error: JiraError HTTP 401 url: https://xxxxx.atlassian.net/rest/auth/1/session
	text: Login failed
	
	response headers = {...}

jira.exceptions.JIRAError: JiraError HTTP 401 url: https://xxxxx.atlassian.net/rest/auth/1/session

Using jira library works fine:

jira = JIRA('https://xxxxx.atlassian.net', basic_auth=('username', 'password'))

FYI this is my current workaround:

# Create a HTTP connection for JIRA

from jira import JIRA

def update_jira():
    hook = HttpHook(http_conn_id='jira_http')
    conn = hook.get_connection(hook.http_conn_id)
    url = conn.host
    creds = (conn.login, conn.password)
    jira_client = JIRA(url, basic_auth=creds)

Alternatively:

# Create a HTTP connection for JIRA

from jira import JIRA

def update_jira():
    conn = BaseHook.get_connection('jira_http')
    url = conn.get_uri()
    creds = (conn.login, conn.password)
    jira_client = JIRA(url, basic_auth=creds)
