How are you storing these test cycles in JIRA?

p.s. your screenshot gives away user and company data, so you should probably block out the personal details or delete it from this question.

Hi @Sam Hall

We already installed a Zephyr in JIRA . 

Do we need to install another plugin ZAPI to communicate using rest APIs or this was a part of Zephyr. ?

You do need to install the ZAPI add-on as well as Zephyr.

I think you are using the wrong endpoint. 

Have a look here: https://support.getzephyr.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000412763-Getting-Started-with-ZAPI-Cloud

This mentions the base URI for Zapi API calls is: https://prod-api.zephyr4jiracloud.com/connect/

See also: https://zephyrdocs.atlassian.net/wiki/display/DEVELOPER/ZAPI+Cloud

If you have more questions or need help, you should probably raise requests directly with the vendors of Zephyr/ZAPI at: https://support.getzephyr.com

HI @Sam Hall

Used this reference link to fetch the test data , but not able to . Receving 404 when trying to hit for 

https:/xxxxxxxxxx Server url /connect/public/rest/api/1.0/teststep/48938

Is this API is correct ? 

I am currently using a trial version of ZAPI . Is it allows me to connect to API ?

Also when tried to fetch the project list using following :

https://XXXXXX/jira/rest/zapi/latest/util/project-list

Receiving 401 - is the below syntax is correct ?

I don't know, I'm afraid.

Did you have a look on the Zepyhr/Zapi support pages? There is plenty of info there.

The API documentation gives the details of how to get test steps here: http://docs.zfjcloud.apiary.io/#reference/teststep/get-update-and-delete-teststep/get-teststep

And there is this about the 401: https://support.getzephyr.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000308283-401-error-while-making-ZAPI-Cloud-API-requests

Maybe someone on here will give you better answers but, as said in my comment above, it is probably better if you send questions directly to Zephyr.

Why not follow the "Have more questions? Submit a case" link in their getting started guide?:

This takes you to a page where you can sign-up and raise support case/questions with the people who built the add-ons. I'm sure they will be much more knowledgable than me:

p.s. just to double check:

I think you should be using a url starting with https://prod-api.zephyr4jiracloud.com/connect/, not your JIRA url.

@prag kalra

Can you please try to use https://XXXXXX/rest/zapi/latest/util/project-list

this URL. You need to remove "jira" keyword from url, this workes for me.

I was also using the wrong URL.
