Summary

SOAP to REST APIs

Many of Jira's remote APIs (SOAP APIs) that have been used historically in the Jira CLI will be removed from Jira 7.0. Replacement remote APIs (REST APIs) are available in Jira 7.0.

The Jira Server version of Jira 7.0 is expected to be released by Atlassian later this year. However, Jira Cloud has already been updated.

Little to no impact after both updates

This notice is let Jira CLI customers know that they will be able to move to Jira 7.0 with little or no impact, as our ongoing Jira CLI updates will adapt to the new interfaces under the covers. In fact, over the past years, some interfaces have already been converted to the new APIs or new functions have been implemented using the new APIs.
