I've been developing a Jira rest API client against v7.7.0, but recently found out that our server is actually v7.4.1. How would I check if my client is compatible with the lower version? It's unclear how the API is versioned.

Youn,

API versions matchs with Jira versions, here are the links for both APIs:

7.7.0:

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.7.0/

7.4.1:

https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.4.1/

The only way to check is to read the API docs for both versions.

The REST API version is considered to be the same as the Jira version, as it is part of it.
