Bug Description

Since Jenkins doesn't return Unauthorize (401) but Forbidden (403) when hitting an URL that requires authentication, the JSONJenkins.get_json_data traces back the /api/json endpoint requires a password or a token.

I'm attaching a sketch of the fix for reference (it worked for me).
