For Agents
Manage Axosoft features, defects, incidents, projects, releases, and work logs from a single API. Suited to agents that automate Scrum and Kanban workflows for engineering teams.
Get started with Axosoft API in minutes using your preferred integration method.
# Add to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf)
{
"jentic": {
"url": "https://api.jentic.com/mcp",
"auth": "oauth"
}
}
# Then ask your agent:
"create a defect in axosoft"
# → Jentic returns the GET /events tool with parameter schema, agent executes.What an agent can do with Axosoft API API.
Create, list, retrieve, update, and delete features, defects, and incidents
Attach files and add comments to features, defects, and incidents
Move work items through workflow steps to advance Scrum or Kanban boards
Manage projects, releases, and contacts associated with engineering work
GET STARTED
Use for: Create a new defect from an incoming bug report, List all open features in a specific Axosoft project, Add a comment to an existing defect with reproduction steps, Move a feature to the 'In Review' workflow step
Not supported: Does not handle source control, CI/CD pipelines, or production monitoring — use Axosoft for agile project management of features, defects, incidents, releases, and work logs only.
Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI document for Axosoft API, keeping it validated and agent-ready.
Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for Axosoft API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. Axosoft is an agile project-management platform for software development teams that exposes features, defects, incidents, projects, releases, contacts, users, work logs, and item operations through a v6 REST API. Endpoints support attachments and comments on items and workflow-step transitions for moving work through agile boards. Authentication uses OAuth 2.0.
Record and list work logs for time tracking against items
Manage users and item-level relationships across the Axosoft instance
Patterns agents use Axosoft API API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Bug Triage Automation
Support and engineering teams can route customer-reported bugs into Axosoft as defects via POST /defects, attach repro details with /defects/{id}/comments, and advance the workflow with /defects/{id}/workflow_steps. The /defects/{id}/attachments endpoint allows logs and screenshots to be attached for reproducers. Suited to teams shifting bug intake from email into a structured tracker.
POST /defects with the customer-reported bug summary and attach the support transcript via POST /defects/{id}/attachments
Feature Workflow and Release Management
Engineering managers can list features by project via GET /features, advance them through workflow steps with /features/{id}/workflow_steps, and tie them to /releases for release-train planning. The combination keeps board state and release scope aligned. Useful for teams running Scrum boards inside Axosoft.
PATCH a feature via POST /features/{id} to attach it to a release id, then transition it to 'Ready for QA' via POST /features/{id}/workflow_steps
Customer Incident Tracking
Support engineering can log customer-reported incidents through POST /incidents, link them to contacts, and tie related work via items. Comments and attachments capture investigation history. Suited to teams that handle production incidents inside their dev tracker rather than a separate tool.
POST /incidents with the customer description and contact id, then add the initial mitigation note via POST /incidents/{id}/comments
Time Tracking via Work Logs
Teams can record hours spent on items by posting to the work-logs endpoints, supporting time-tracked billing or capacity reporting. Combined with the items and projects endpoints, this gives a per-project effort view. Suited to consultancies and product teams that bill by hour or want capacity insight.
POST a work log entry tied to a specific feature id with hours and a description for the day's contribution
Agent-Driven Engineering Ops via Jentic
An engineering-ops agent can triage new defects, advance items through workflow steps, and pull release scope from Axosoft via Jentic without holding the OAuth client secret. Jentic exposes the feature, defect, incident, and release operations as discoverable tools. Suited to PM copilots and on-call assistants.
Search Jentic for 'list axosoft features', load GET /features, and execute it scoped to the current sprint to feed a status summary

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Axosoft OAuth 2.0 client secrets are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents receive short-lived access tokens scoped to the Axosoft instance — raw client credentials never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent (e.g. 'create a defect' or 'list features for sprint') and Jentic returns the matching Axosoft operations with their input schemas attached.
Time to first call
Direct Axosoft integration: 1-2 days to wire OAuth, instance configuration, and item-workflow mapping. Through Jentic: under 1 hour from search to first executed feature or defect call.
Alternatives and complements available in the Jentic catalogue.
Jira API
Jira is the dominant agile tracker competing directly with Axosoft for engineering workflows.
Pick Jira when the team is on Atlassian; pick Axosoft when the workflow already lives in an Axosoft instance.
Linear API
Linear offers a fast modern issue tracker with GraphQL, competing with Axosoft for product teams.
Choose Linear for greenfield product teams that prefer GraphQL and modern UX; choose Axosoft when the team already runs Scrum/Kanban inside Axosoft.
GitHub API
GitHub holds the source code while Axosoft holds the agile work items.
Use GitHub alongside Axosoft when the agent needs to link commits or pull requests to Axosoft features and defects.
Specific to using Axosoft API API through Jentic.
Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for Axosoft API?
Axosoft does not publish an OpenAPI specification. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call Axosoft API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.
What authentication does the Axosoft API use?
Axosoft v6 uses OAuth 2.0. Through Jentic, the OAuth client secret is stored encrypted in the vault and the agent receives short-lived access tokens scoped to the Axosoft instance, so secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I create defects and advance their workflow with the Axosoft API?
Yes. POST /defects creates a defect, POST /defects/{id}/comments adds investigation notes, and POST /defects/{id}/workflow_steps moves the defect to a new workflow state.
How do I attach files to an Axosoft work item?
Use POST /features/{id}/attachments, POST /defects/{id}/attachments, or the equivalent /incidents path to upload an attachment tied to that item. The corresponding GET endpoints list existing attachments.
What are the rate limits for the Axosoft API?
The Axosoft OpenAPI spec does not declare published rate limits. Axosoft enforces instance-level quotas and OAuth scope limits; back off on 429 responses if encountered when iterating bulk operations.
How do I list features on a sprint through Jentic?
Search Jentic for 'list axosoft features', load GET /features, and execute it with a project filter. Jentic handles the OAuth token exchange and returns the feature list to your agent.
