Is it possible to get data from BigPicture via Rest-API?

Is it possible to get data from BigPicture via Rest-API? If so, I would like to read the year and quarter from all program increments (PI) (as shown in the picture).

Hey @Edlaos 

Yes, you can retrieve data from BigPicture via its REST API. You can refer to the official API documentation here.

For your specific case, the endpoint should look something like this:

{baseUrl}/public/ppm/box/{boxId}

Make sure to replace {baseUrl} and {boxId} with the correct URLs for your instance: https://developer.bigpicture.one/reference/baseurl

In response you should get all the details of Art-5 Box from your screenshot, including its hierarchy and names of its children.

Hope this helps.

so my BaseUrl is the “https://company.atlassian.net/rest/bigpicture/1.0/public/ppm/box/”

and what do you mean by {boxId}? what should it look like?

Each element or container is represented as a Box in BigPicture. It can be PI, task, project, etc. For example, boxIds on your screenshot are: ART-1, ART-5, PROG-36 ...

You need to determine the boxId of the PI you're interested in.
