Is there an official REST-API documentation for Jira server 8.x?

When checking this:

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/

Clicking on the 'server' directory in the above opens the REST-API for Jira 7.6.1. There are no directories there created after end of 2017.

Anyone?

Thanks

Here you go, I was on this page only - https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/8.3.3/

Thanks DPK.

Please note (this is for anyone reading this thread) that if you look for a different JIRA version and you click on the link listed on the top of the page:

you are then redirected to the directory listing that I mentioned in my question, which does not include anything higher than 7.6.1.

So, what you need to do is to ignore the provided link and instead use this pattern, for example, for 8.3.1:

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/8.3.1/

Thanks,

This page takes you to latest page always - https://developer.atlassian.com/server/jira/platform/rest-apis/

Other then this, if you want to view API of specific version, edit version information in this url - https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/<VERSION_NUMBER>/

This is what I use.
