Starting October 11, 2024 (Zephyr Enterprise 8.2), the Zephyr Enterprise documentation moved from its current location on Atlassian to a dedicated, standalone Zephyr Enterprise documentation page. Please see: https://support.smartbear.com/zephyr-enterprise/docs/en/zephyr-enterprise/zephyr-rest-api/search-api.html |
You can use Zephyr Enterprise REST API to search for test cases, requirements, and executions programmatically.

You can specify the first element of the retrieved results and the number of items to show by using the firstresult and maxresults query parameters respectively. The firstresult parameter is zero-based, which means you need to specify 0 as the start position to begin with the first element. The sample request below will show a list of results starting from the first element, and the maximum number of retrieved items will be 10100:
GET /flex/services/rest/latest/advancesearch?word=test&entitytype=testcase&releaseid=1&zql=false&firstresult=0&maxresults=10100
Sample requests
ZQL is not used:
GET /flex/services/rest/latest/advancesearch?word=test&entitytype=testcase&releaseid=1&zql=false&firstresult=0&maxresults=10100
ZQL is used:
GET /flex/services/rest/latest/advancesearch?word=creator="test.manager" and priority="P1"&entitytype=testcase&releaseid=1&zql=true&firstresult=0&maxresults=50100
Sample response
On success, the operation returns status code 200 and a JSON object containing metadata and found results. The structure of these results varies depending on the sought-for entities, items and so on. Below is a sample response obtained when searching for an execution:
