CLI version (paconn --version)
OS version
Shell Type (e.g. bash, cmd.exe, Bash on Windows)

Start by locating the Jira Search connector definition and its authentication configuration, then review the Jira Cloud authentication deprecation referenced in the issue. Confirm which supported authentication flow is required and verify that a new Power Automate flow can authenticate and complete API requests successfully.
