2. Access rest/auth/1/session via a rest api call using the same basic authentication with email/password

Workaround:
You can call this resource using your JIRA username and Atlassian account password. Like this:
POST https://your-domain.atlassian.net/rest/auth/1/session
{ "username" : "admin",
"password" : "$ATLASSIAN_ACCOUNT_PASSWORD"}
If you do not know if your instance has been upgraded to Atlassian account or you don't know your Atlassian account password, you can verify this and reset your password from your JIRA Cloud profile page (https://your-domain.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa)
