        ``http://localhost:2990/jira``. The ``options`` argument can be used to set the JIRA instance to use.

        Authentication is handled with the ``basic_auth`` argument. If authentication is supplied (and is
        accepted by JIRA), the client will remember it for subsequent requests.

            * rest_api_version -- the version of the REST resources under rest_path to use. Defaults to ``2``.

            * access_token_secret -- OAuth access token secret to sign with the key
            * consumer_key -- key of the OAuth application link defined in JIRA
