Please make sure to read the Introduction to the REST API before starting to use it.
This page describes all rest endpoints which are related to one or multiple connectors. A connector is one half of a synchronization, responsible for one project.

Triggers a resync from the given connector to the other connector. |
|
GET |
/connectors/{connectorKey}/syncInformation |
Returns an array of sync information (which local issue belongs to which remote issue) for this connector. |

How to find the connector key
All endpoints described here need a connector key. You can find the corresponding connector key by using the synchronization endpoints. Inside a synchronization, you can locate two connectorKeys, one for each project.

|
Entity Parameter |
Type |
Description |

|
|
fieldMappings |
string array |
This array contains the IDs of all the field mappings which should be considered during the resync. You can get these ids by examining the synchronization configuration you can get via the get synchronization endpoint . You have to use the id value of each fieldmapping. |

|
|
responsibility |
boolean |
This relates to the advanced setting responsibility if it also should be resynced or not. |
false |
|
|
sendStatusField |
boolean |
If the status field should also be resynced or not - please be aware that you will force the other issue in the current status regardless of the history how the issue transitioned to that state. We recommend to only resync the status in exceptional cases. |
false |
