According to API v7 documentation, the  SpiraTeam: REST Web Service  should do the job, but it doesnt in practice: the returned error is Endpoint not found.     The GET call, made using Postman:  http://[SPIRATEAM_SERVER]/Services/v7_0/RestService.svc/projects/[PRJID]/requirements/[REQID]/parents?username=[USER]&amp;api-key=[RSSAPIKEY]   All parameters inside brackets are valid, since I get positive results with similar APIs (for example, to get Requirement childrens, a very similar API).  Usually, the error Endpoint not found is due to a missing functionality (or calling the wrong API).     I didnt found any previous thread about this issue on the forum: can someone help or provide me an hint?

The working API endpoint looks like this:    GET https://YOUR_INSTANCE.URL/services/v7_0/RestService.svc/projects/1/requirements/17/parents?username=administrator&amp;api-key={1B7850B9-ZYZY-XYXY-ZXZX-5E300EA90AC2}   Please make sure that: - You keep API-KEY in curly braces (not square brackets) - ProjectID and RequirementID have no brackets at all - Username has no brackets  More about using API endpoints can be found here:  https://spiradoc.inflectra.com/Developers/API-Overview/#overview   If you will still have issues with that, please   contact support directly in a dedicated ticket .

I deeply investigated and after reading documentation for 3h, I tested the APIs on local system https://My_server_url/Services/v7_0/RestService.aspx  (will produce the list of available API calls)  and I discovered that the  SpiraTeam: REST Web Service  is not available on our SpiraTeam v7.12.0.0.  Starting from which version the projects/{project_id}/requirements/{requirement_id}/parents is available?     Thank you very much.

I would upgrade Spira up to the latest, but if youd like to know the exact version of Spira - let me check and get back to you.
