Administrative Updates

Changes to REST API Access Policy

Beginning with the Jama Connect 9.29 Cloud release (9.28.x for Self-Hosted and Customer-Validated Cloud), Jama Software is changing the licensing requirements for accessing the REST API. This update is necessary to align REST API consumption with the new REST API reporting capabilities in this release. For questions about licensing requirements, contact your Customer Success Manager.

Error Message — Users who are denied access receive an error message.

Monitoring REST API Usage Activity

Organization admins now have the ability to see which users are using the REST API and the volume of calls they are making.

Benefits of monitoring REST API usage activity:

Improved transparency — Give organizations a clear view of how their applications and users are interacting with the system, including volume and timing of usage.
Enhanced accountability — Associate REST API calls and the owners of OAuth ClientIDs, making it easier to trace usage, audit activity, and manage permissions.
Increased operational efficiency — Quickly identify and resolve issues such as rogue integrations or applications/users making excessive or unexpected REST API calls.

Note: Data for REST API User Activity will only show usage information starting from the date the feature was enabled. Historical REST API usage data prior to that date won't be available.
