REST API for JIRA 8.1

[Scott McDonald]

Does anyone have a recommendation for a JIRA REST API I can use for 8.1?  When I upgraded from 7.8.4, the API became incompatible so I need a new one until Atlassian creates a new one that supports 8.1.

Hi @Scott McDonald

I’d be interested to know what REST calls you were relying on in 7. that broke in 8.

We have a large number of integrations done via REST and some custom addons using the Java API as well and in our testing so far, have not had any issues - so seeing where you’ve seen changes (and validating this against the publicized breaking changes documentation) would be very helpful.

Hi @Craig Castle-Mead ,

It's not necessarily the calls we're making, it's when I attempt to manage the add-on, it says it's incompatible so perhaps that is just a false message and the API hasn't necessarily changed in 8.1?

Hey @Scott McDonald 

Just wondering what addon you’re referring to? I assumed you were talking about the native Jira REST endpoints.

Hi @Craig Castle-Mead

The Atlassian REST API Browser, which seems to be a native add-on to JIRA?
