'''This specific 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.
 
'''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.'''

* Fields of type Timestamp are in an ISO 8601 format - either YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS or YYYYMMDDTHH:MM:SS (T being a literal "T"). Eventually, all will also have a +NNNN timezone marker, but currently most don't.
* Fields of type Timestamp should be sent and received in the UTC timezone in ISO 8601 format - YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ (T and Z being a literal "T" and "Z").

Between 3.6 and 4.0, Bugzilla changed which of these two fields was considered "primary". Note that you should never have Bugzilla version problems if you always supply both fields on submit, and the two fields refer to the same group (i.e. no mismatches).
