Jama Connect Help

REST API

REST API is an application program interface to assist developers in a straightforward integration with Jama Connect.

Jama Software provides two approaches to accessing REST API:

  • Allow all members in your organization to access REST API (default).

  • Use the REST API Access Control feature to limit access to only authorized users and groups.

The REST API feature is enabled by default. To disable the REST API feature for your organization, contact  Support.

Access Control can be used to limit access to specific users and groups. A wizard walks you through the steps to opt-in to Access Control, then you can configure access. Access changes take effect immediately.

Monitoring REST API usage

The REST API monitoring feature provides visibility into REST API usage across your system by associating activity with specific users.

Licensing requirements — REST API access policy

Access to the REST API is controlled in the following way:

  • Access to the REST API is limited to users with a Named Creator license, which includes endpoint within v1, labs, and SCIM. Users without a Named Creator license, including those with a Creator Float license, do not have access.
