Developer's Guide

Identity Federation for AWS is a foundational Amazon Web Services (AWS) integration add-on, which exposes resources via a REST API – this is the developer's guide to the Identity Federation for AWS REST API for developers who want to:

        • integrate Atlassian products with AWS based DevOps scenarios
        • develop add-ons that enhance an Atlassian product's functionality by means of integrating AWS backed services

API Compatibility

Identity Federation for AWS strives to support the two latest API versions to provide an upgrade path:

API Limitations

Usage of the REST API requires an active user session, which isn't available during execution of tasks in Bamboo or scheduled tasks in JIRA for example.

  • AWS credentials for such 'system scope' scenarios can be retrieved via the as of yet unpublished Java API (facilitated by Tasks for AWS for example) - please don't hesitate to get in touch, if you are in need for system scoped identity federation with AWS, we are eager to learn more about your use case.

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):

REST 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.

Atlassian REST API Design Guidelines compliance

The Identity Federation for AWS API has been designed with the Atlassian REST API Design Guidelines in mind - however, these are not consistently followed by Atlassian itself and its latest product Stash features an elaborate REST API applying a few more current REST API trends accordingly, which have been applied here as well if in doubt (e.g. using plural for collections rather than singular).

Structure of the REST URIs

The Identity Federation for AWS REST API provides access to resources (data entities) via URI paths. To use the REST API, your application will make an HTTP request and parse the response. The Identity Federation for AWS REST API uses JSON as its communication format, and the standard HTTP methods like GET, PUT, POST and DELETE. URIs for Identity Federation for AWS REST API resources are keyed by the add-on namespace and have the following structure:

http://host:port/context/rest/identity-federation-for-aws/2.0

REST API v2 resources (Identity Federation)

This is the reference of all resources relevant to this add-ons actual functionality as a token vendor for Identity Federation - refer to the REST API resources (complete reference) if you intent to include this add-on into administrative automation scenarios (e.g. for scripting).

Refer to Amazon EC2 Container Registry (Amazon ECR) authentication credentials for details.
