Jenkins Github Pull Request Builder Plugin throwing user authentication error

[aditya-malviya]

I'm getting below error "Unable to connect to GitHub API: org.kohsuke.github.HttpException: {"message":"Requires authentication","documentation_url":"https://docs.github.com/rest/reference/users#get-the-authenticated-user"}"

Tried with multiple user on 2 different Jenkins, issue remains same.

Same problem here...

Update your credentials by providing your oauth token. It is still the same credential type - username/password, but password section should include your token.

Thank you @bl4keee! I created a new access token and its working.

Can you provide instruction that you were following in order to set up Github Pull Request Builder plugin? Even though token access is working good, my jobs are not being triggered on raising pull request... :/

+1 to this problem.
