 What's New

  • Use an API token to authenticate an Atlassian Cloud version of JIRA. To set the JIRA connection properties for JIRA endpoints, you generate an API token from your Atlassian account, then copy and paste it to the Password field. For details on how to create an API token, see https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/api-tokens-938839638.html.
  • ALM Synchronizer supports API Key authentication for API integrations. API key authentication provides a secure authentication mechanism for external applications accessing ALM's API. 

      The ALM site administrator generates and manages the list of API keys for ALM. Each API key includes a Client ID and an API Key Secret for applications to use when authenticating. Each API key is associated with an ALM user. Therefore, when an application uses an API key to access ALM, the application is limited by its user's permissions.You can use an API key to access ALM only if it is currently listed as active in the list of API keys.

      ALM 12.60: For more details see, What's New in ALM 12.60.

      ALM 14.0X: For more details see, What's New in ALM 14.0X.

  • Supported environments:
    • Atlassian JIRA 7.7.x
    • Atlassian JIRA 7.8.x
    • Atlassian JIRA 7.9.x
