'''If you are interfacing with [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ bugzilla.mozilla.org], then this REST API, generally referred to as "BzAPI", is DEPRECATED. For new projects, use the [[Bugzilla:REST_API|native REST API]] instead. The BMO team has implemented a [[Bugzilla:BzAPI:CompatLayer|compatibility layer]] to help existing apps transition off BzAPI onto the native REST API. Please migrate existing BzAPI-based apps to the new compatibility-layer endpoint as soon as possible, as BzAPI will be shut off at some point in the future. Direct any questions to the [[BMO]] team.

'''However, the Native REST API has not yet shipped in any released version of Bugzilla, so if you want a REST interface to a different Bugzilla server, installing BzAPI (the code documented here) is still your best choice for now.'''
'''The native REST API is available in Bugzilla 5.0 and up, and on bugzilla.mozilla.org.  Although BzAPI is deprecated, it can be used with older Bugzilla installations (versions prior to 5.0) to provide a REST API.'''
