Administration REST API

warning

Availability

Some of the API methods described in this section have been deprecated. To manage Users, Groups, Roles, and Permissions use the Hub REST API. This API does not support cookie-based authorization, so existing scripts or other clients should be adapted to Hub OAuth 2.0 auth instead.

All existing YouTrack REST methods support this token-based authorization as well, thus you will not need to maintain both schemes once migrated. We recommend using permanent tokens for authorization. For more information, see Log in to YouTrack.

tip

Permissions

To use Administration REST API methods, the user account that you use to log in to YouTrack must have the Low-level Administration permission.
