API changes in 5.1 or newer

A new API (version 2) is introduced and will replace the API version 1 in the future. Everything from API v1 should therefore be regarded as deprecated. Where possible, we recommend to replace all API v1 calls by API v2.

It is possible that not every API v1 method has a corresponding API v2 method. Keep in mind that not all API v1 methods will be replaced, because many API v1 methods were not intended to be available in a public API. API v2 is a cleaner API that can be kept backwards compatible more easily.

As a consequence of the introduction of the API v2, the REST path /latest should no longer be used to access the API v1. The existing path /1.0 should be used instead.

The API documentation is still available via https://<yourdgcinstance>.yourcompany.com/docs/index.html, where you can find the Collibra Java and REST APIs.

Note REST API calls and errors are stored in the database, not in the logs.

As of version 5.3, you also have an import API.
