REST API - Deactivate the REST API

XMLWordPrintable

      Suggestion Description

      Confluence Server REST API is active by default and there is no way to deactivate. 

      It should have a similar option like the Enabling the Remote API where you can simply deactivate the functionality if you do no use it or even to prevent bad use of it.

            Confluence's REST API underpins multiple parts of the user interface, and cannot be disabled without also breaking the UI.
