      Issue Summary

      OAuth 2.0, and PAT token authentication methods are missing from the REST API documentation pages
       

      Steps to Reproduce

      Access the following pages and try to find OAuth 2.0 and PAT token as supported methods.

      Expected Results

      Here in the following documents, we should see both OAuth 2.0 and PAT token authentication as supported for Jira REST APIs.

      From the Using Personal Access Tokens and Jira OAuth 2.0 provider API pages we can confirm OAuth 2.0 provider and PAT Token authentication are supported.

      With that, there is a bug in the documentation starting on Jira 8.14 version for PAT token and 8.22 for OAuth 2.0 provider, where it should mention these options, and also highlight these options are recommended to increase the security.

      Actual Results

      We can see only OAuth 1.0 and Basic authentication as supported methods for authentication.

      Workaround

      Currently, there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
