API Calls to JIra

[Ron Jacob]

How to determine what all API callls are being to made to particular Jira instance 

[Ron Jacob]

Basically, I need to know which users are invoking Rest api and which one to a Jira instance.

We are upgrading Jira to newer version, idea is to involve them in testing during upgrade of JIRA

Access logging as above, but you'll need to filter through it to work out which calls are REST, internal, automation or scripting etc.

[Ron Jacob]

Are you referring to HTTP access logging ?

How to filter the type of calls ?

Also is there 

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

No, I mean the logging at the server level - access.log in the Tomcat directories, although enabling http logging in here will give you stuff in the Application access logs.

There is no filtering in the type of calls - it's up to you to work out which ones are which by looking at each url hit and where the access was from.

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

For the main API, you'd need to be doing stack traces.

For REST, you'll need to set up access logging (and bear in mind this won't tell you if the call is from a user's browser while they're in Jira, or some form of automation, or a script etc)
