Official REST API to manage rules, and access automation audit logs

Problem Definition

It is not possible to create, edit, delete, enable or disable automation rules using a REST API.

In some cases, for example when creating a new staging instance from production data, it is desired to have some or all automation rules disabled or edited at once, in an automated way.

Suggested Solution

Implement a public REST API to allow the following operations:

• Create rules
• Edit rules
• Enable/disable rules
• Delete rules
• Get list of rules
• Export/Import rules

We would like to export Jira automation logs to an external dashboarding system. Unfortunately, both the /auditlog and the /automation endpoints are internal APIs. They are not available outside Jira.

Is it possible to expose automation-related APIs to allow us to do the following either via a Rest API or a Webhook:

1. Export automation audit logs
2. Create/Delete/Edit/View automation rules
3. Export Automation rules
