Insight Asset Management ships with some Import types, for example: JSON and DB imports.
We have several requests to allow additional Authentication Methods to connect to the Import Source, for example:
Configure an MSSQL Database Import with Windows Kerberos Authentication - as customers report Security will not allow for Native SQL User to be used.
Configure a JSON Import, with Bearer Token Authentication
See also: Mindville backlog.
the Insight SCCM Integration Import does support 3 Authentication methods...

In order to use Assets imports, we have to allow Basic auth on API calls, which goes against Atlassian's own guidlines:
On the "Authentication methods" page of Jira itself:
But also here: Basic auth for REST APIs
JSM and Assets are both aimed at enterprise customers, basic auth just won't cut it anymore for these kinds of customers (me included).
Atlassian went through the trouble of creating PAT's specifically to stop the use of Basic Auth... Allow us to use it!
Going the extra mile and allowing OAuth or User-context tokens would be fantastic, but already allowing simple api keys / bearer tokens would be a fantastic start!
