Integrating third-party applications with BMC Helix ITSM by using the simplified REST API

Introduced in BMC Helix ITSM version 21.3, the simplified API is an enhanced, completely redesigned API that offers more capabilities and better consumption of the API. The simplified API offers advantages such as:

  • First-class objects
  • User friendly and industry standard naming conventions for endpoints and attributes
  • Industry standard searching, filtering, and sorting of results
  • Better error handling and status codes

Best practice
