Getting started

 

The Identity Federation for AWS REST API is based on open standards, so you can use any web development language or command line tool capable of generating an HTTP request to access the API, e.g. the popular cURL (a CLI tool for transferring data with URL syntax) or the highly recommended HTTPie (a CLI, cURL-like tool for humans). All resources can be used like the regular JIRA REST API (or Stash REST API, see info below):

 

Tip
titleREST API Browser

The easiest way to explore and experiment with the Identity Federation for AWS API is by means of the Atlassian REST API Browser, simply select the Identity Federation for AWS resources.
