How to check your Jira cloud version

Summary

In Jira Cloud, the version doesn't really play any role as Atlassian periodically updates all sites. However, if you do have a use case that needs the version, you can follow the steps in this article.

Solution

To check the Jira Cloud version you can use the rest API endpoint /serverInfo to get the version and the build number details.

1. Open the Jira site in a browser

2. Edit the site URL to be in the below format and hit Enter

   1 https://<your-domain>.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/serverInfo

3. The result will be the JSON which will contain the versionNumber and buildNumber objects that gives the version and build details.

Please note that you should ignore the Version details from this endpoint. Jira Cloud's continuous development model means it doesn't use traditional versioning but instead relies on feature flags for functionality. Please follow the feature request below about removing the "version field" from the serverInfo API endpoint to prevent confusion, as it won't be updated:
