The Most Flexible API in Requirements Management
API-first is not a marketing line for Trace.Space. It is an architectural decision made on day one. Every capability in the platform is accessible programmatically. If you can do it in the browser, you can do it through the API. No paywalls, no hidden endpoints, no enterprise tier required for basic access.
This is for teams that need requirements management to plug into their broader engineering toolchain, not sit next to it.
What You Can Build
Sync with Atlassian Products
Push and pull requirements between Trace.Space and Jira or Confluence. Keep your engineering data synchronized without manual export/import cycles. Jira issues map to requirements. Confluence pages map to specifications. Traces stay intact across systems.
Connect to Git Providers
GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket. Link code changes to the requirements they implement. Trace from a commit back to a system requirement and forward to the verification that proves it works.
Integrate Legacy Tooling
If your organization has a DOORS, Jama, or Codebeamer subscription, you have access to their API documentation. Trace.Space can sit between your legacy tool and your modern workflow, synchronizing data without forcing a full migration on day one.
Bridge to Engineering Tools
Connect to PLM systems (TeamCenter, Windchill), CAD tools (SolidWorks, 3DS), simulation platforms (MATLAB, Ansys), and CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Azure DevOps). Requirements trace all the way to physical design and test execution.
Build Custom Workflows
Business intelligence dashboards. Custom compliance reports. Automated notifications when coverage drops below a threshold. If your team has a process that touches requirements data, the API lets you automate it.
REST API
Full CRUD operations on requirements, traces, projects, baselines, reviews, and user data. Bulk operations for import and migration workflows. Filter and query endpoints that mirror the platform's saved filter capabilities.
How Engineering Teams Use the API
A defense technology company integrated Trace.Space with their internal CI/CD pipeline and PLM system. When a software build passes, the API automatically updates the verification status of the corresponding requirements in Trace.Space. When a hardware design changes in the PLM system, the API triggers an impact analysis that identifies which requirements and test cases are affected.
The result: traceability maintained automatically across the full engineering lifecycle, with no manual data entry and no lag between a change and its visibility in the requirement chain.
