How can I get the human readable Jira Cloud Version ?

Question

Hello Everyone,

I just want to know the Jira version of my cloud instance using REST api. The Jira version should be in the format such as  9.7.1, 8.1.3. But there is no api I found for it.

However I got the one,  https://your-domain.atlassian.com/rest/api/3/serverInfo  which responds the server info and it does not contain the version number I required.

It contains the information related to version and build number like below, which doesn't cover my use case.

version": "1001.0.0-SNAPSHOT"
buildNumber: 100221,

Is there any REST api or some other way through which I can get the JIRA cloud version in format such as 9.7.1, 8.1.3 ?

I won't repeat what the others have said, but I do want to ask why you think you want this version number.

It is of absolutely no use to a subscriber to the service.  The only use for it is for a bit of Compliance logging and the answer to "what version was/is it?" is "latest at the time".

Hi @suman.b and welcome to the community,

As both @Carlos Garcia Navarro and @marc -Collabello--Phase Locked- stated with their post, in cloud there is no version ingredient number like on server. And as Nick said on the link provided by Carlos, you are running the latest cloud version.
