Thanks for getting back so quickly.

I believe my access key is correct, I'm setting this as the "server.authentication.key" in the zbot.properties file.

I am pulling the key itself from POSTMan as suggested in another topic in here - https://community.smartbear.com/t5/Zephyr-Squad-formerly-Zephyr-for/Unable-to-start-the-Zbot-on-windows-machine/m-p/213228#M188

 

Unfortunately the error response isn't giving me much of a clue why it has not worked, whether it has failed authorisation or something else.

 

From what you have said, I assume it is the ZBot itself which is responsible for registering with Zephyry for Jira? After it has done that I should be able to select my zbot instance while setting up automation in Jira?

Hi Again,

Yes Zbot agent is responsible to register itself with Zephyr squad.

After registering you can create automation tasks with the registered agents and execute those jobs further.

 

You can raise ticket to support, support team will help you in further debugging the issue.
