Kantega SSO Enterprise REST API

Starting with version 5.2 Kantega SSO Enterprise introduces REST API for managing plugin configuration. Our plugin exposes REST resources under the /ksso/api path.

The latest Kantega SSO REST API offers the following resources:

There is a neat plugin from Atlassian for discovery and testing of REST services that you can use for running requests on your Jira installation, you can get it here:
Atlassian Marketplace
You can find the Kantega SSO REST API by searching for ksso/api and uncheck the “show only public APIs” checkbox.

1. General plugin information

On the resource /rest/ksso/api/info/1.0/ping, you can perform GET requests to check the liveness of Kantega SSO Enterprise.

Example

GET
https://<atlassian-product-base-url>/rest/ksso/api/info/1.0/ping

Returns a HTTP 200 with a JSON document when Kantega SSO Enterprise is alive:

{
    "datetime": "2022-04-09T05:10:06.160+02:00[Europe/Oslo]",
    "response": "pong",
    "timestamp": 1649473806160
}

2. Snapshots of Config (Now Backup & restore in GUI)

The available services under /rest/ksso/api/snapshot are:

Resources under /rest for sysadmin	HTTP method	Description

Resources under /rest for sysadmin	HTTP method	Description
ksso/api/snapshot/1.0/config/snapshot/	GET	Returns a list of available snapshots
ksso/api/snapshot/1.0/config/snapshot/	POST	Saves a snapshot of the Kantega SSO configuration, with optional description
ksso/api/snapshot/1.0/config/snapshot/restore/{id}	POST	Restores snapshot with id

Examples

GET
https://<atlassian-product-base-url>/rest/ksso/api/snapshot/1.0/config/snapshot/
Returns a list of available snapshots like

[
  {
    "applicationName": "JIRA",
    "applicationVersion": "8.16.1",
    "pluginVersion": "5.2.1-SNAPSHOT",
    "baseUrl": "https://elisor-p1:8443/jira",
    "timeMillis": 1641298623998,
    "description": "test",
    "filename": "sso-snapshot-2022-01-04-13_17_04.zip",
    "id": "sso-snapshot-2022-01-04-13_17_04",
    "readable": true
  },
  {
    "applicationName": "JIRA",
    "applicationVersion": "8.16.1",
    "pluginVersion": "5.2.1-SNAPSHOT",
    "baseUrl": "https://elisor-p1:8443/jira",
    "timeMillis": 1641224273947,
    "description": "Backup before upgrade of config from version [unknown version] to 5.2.1-SNAPSHOT",
    "filename": "sso-snapshot-2022-01-03-16_37_53.zip",
    "id": "sso-snapshot-2022-01-03-16_37_53",
    "readable": true
  }
]

POST
/rest/ksso/api/snapshot/1.0/config/snapshot/
Without parameter will automatically generate a description like:
sso-snapshot-2021-12-02-19_51_50
You can also provide a description to tag the snapshot with more info:
/rest/ksso/api/snapshot/1.0/config/snapshot/?description=test-snapshot-2021-12-01

POST
/rest/ksso/api/snapshot/1.0/config/snapshot/restore/{id}
example:
/rest/ksso/api/snapshot/1.0/config/snapshot/restore/sso-snapshot-2021-12-02-19_51_50
Restores the snapshot with id sso-snapshot-2021-12-02-19_51_50. The description does not affect the id, so it’s best to retrieve the id of a snapshot with a specific description by running GET /rest/ksso/api/snapshot/1.0/config/snapshot/ and filtering the results with a specific description.
