ClearQuest : ClearQuest APIs
ClearQuest seems to have several set of APIs :
1. ClearQuest CM API
(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSSH5A_8.0.1/com.ibm.rational.clearquest.team_api.doc/topics/c_introduction.htm)
2. ClearQuest OSLC rest API
(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSSH5A_8.0.1/com.ibm.rational.clearquest.oslc_cmrest_api.doc/topics/c_cq_oslc_rest_api.htm)
3. There is a link that talks about "ClearQuest Web REST API"
https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RcmRestCmApi
So are there three sets of APIs ?
1. ClearQuest Web REST API
2. ClearQuest CM API
3. ClearQuest OSLC rest API
What is the diference between these three APIs? Which one should we prefer for external intergration?
One answer
1. ClearQuest Web REST API is called as also ClearQuest OSLC REST API.
2. ClearQuest CM API is Java API so it is suite for a Java application.
3. ClearQuest OSLC REST API is the same as #1.But there are CQ OSLC REST API 1.0 and 2.0.
Generally, if you think integration with Jazz products, ClearQuest OSLC REST API 2.0 is recommended.
